Buyer Beware......

We had plenty of trouble with the early lifters (Schubeck himself built
in Vegas) too!

There are a bunch of succesful big block engine builders out there and cam manufactures that can put you on the straight and narrow.

Trend and PPPC are two different companies, I use Trend, I do not use PPPC.

There are different types of tool steel lifters, they start at around $24 each, but they go way on up to around $74 each, and which one you need depends on which cam core you use.

Yes ,that was an omission on my part. There was supposed to be or between trend and pppc. Well ,I am sure you got him on the right track.

Alan do feel theirs something wrong with the pppcs?

Jim, I had some less than satisfactory experience with them. Trend, on the other hand, has been very good to deal with.

Going with the coated tool steels!

Since we got the Trend tool steel lifters we use the Schubecks for breaking in cams. They put a burnished finish on the lobes which is a good thing.

D Hake, I thought Jimmy was using PPPC tool steel lifters. Tom
