I use only Trend. Dealt with PPP, once. Never again. Trend has always been really good to me. Most of what I sell is not coated, because they're using them on cast core cams.

I would call Debbie at PPP and ask about delivery. They make a good product if you can get them. I believe their coating work is done in France. The DCL coating is only as good as the company applying it. PPP has struggled producing lifters, no question about it.

PPP came through with a set for me last month. I talked to Debbie a couple of times and she was very nice to deal with and gave me straight up answers to my questions.

I see that Calico is offering DLC coating now. I don't know any details but thought it would be of interest.

I have used this company for a few projects in the past. They have a number of coating options. The quality was always spot on.

So can none of you recall what you paid for the DLC coating on lifters. How about to coat a camshaft.?? $$

I purchased my lifter from Trend already coated. As I recall the coated lifters were about $6-800 more than the uncoated tool steel lifters. After talking to some people, I think you can get the coating from an outside source for much less.
