hi,

i'm searching for some new lifters since i have seen, that my original ones are not so good than i thought they were.

is this a good replacement? does anybody know the seller? or is this stuff crap? he says thats's an original gm part, but it is so cheap

thanks!

Read the ad carefully. The seller states that the auction is for the composite lifter retainers. It also says they are a new GM Performance Part. It also says that is is designed after the Gen III small block, LS1. So, if you need lifters, you will not have them from him. I think you best bet would be to contact Comp Cams or Crane. Sure they make "performance" parts, but they will work and most likely be of higher quaility than you typical part store parts. Maybe even cheaper than the dealer. Just my $.02
