Do they still have to use a checking lifter to check lift if the engine has solid lifters?
I always thought this was why the rule was enacted. |

If you're using a SOLID lifter then the Techs should use the lifter that's in the engine. I've been bit by lifter height before when going through a teardown in the days before the Techs had an adjustable lifter.

I don't race in Stock but I do race a super stock car. I don't see why they don't allow the roller lifters in all stock engines. Many of the newer cars come from the factory with roller lifters. Might even things out a bit and help some of the old iron keep up with the newer stuff. Stock is pretty much like the old time super stock now.

Tell that to the FS cars who are on the same Q sheet as the old cars. AND only 1 of those didn't make the program.
