USED RETROFIT HYDRAULIC ROLLER LIFTERS!!! SUPER HARD TO FIND THESE USED!!
Here is one of the hardest-to-find parts, ever--nice USED retrofit hydraulic roller lifters! I know these are impossible to find because people who go to the trouble of converting their outdated flat tappet cam to roller cam are not going to ever want to sell their far superior roller lifters. It took me over a year to find a set of these used. However, I am putting my project on hold and am going to sell these. I don't know how many miles are on these lifters, but they are in good shape and show only normal wear.
These hydraulic retrofit roller lifters are Speed Pro brand. I believe the part # is RP3264R.
You can use these lifters either in a 1955-86 Gen I chevy small block, to add a roller cam, or also in a factory 87+ roller block, to accomodate high lift cams, or just to get rid of the junky factory roller setup. The horrible 87+ OEM roller block design will un-seat the stock lifters over 0.530" lift in many cases, causing catostrophic damage when the roller lifter is allowed to spin.
$195 firm plus $8 shipping,. will not negotiate The cheapest retro hydraulic roller lifters are nearly $400 new. I am selling them for what I paid for them a few months ago, I am not making a profit on them. I will chuck these in a box in the garage and forget about them if I don't get my asking price, but I'd rather see someone put them to good use. I will be able to use them in the future, and they are very hard to find used.
