ok i'm getting a good deal on a lt1 valvetrain. everything but the lifters.
question is, can i reuse my lifters on the lt1 cam? i do have roller lifters but they have 120k miles on them. i thought roller lifters didn't wear like flat lifters do but i want to know from someone that knows.
thanks everyone and if you need more info just ask
Andrew

Yea, you can reuse the old ones. Just check them out and make sure they arent screwed up, like the roller should be flat with minimal grooves and pitting, and the roller should turn/spin nicely.
