They are new/reman Melling roller lifters. I can get them for super cheap compared to anything else. Would you guys use 'em?

Melling makes good parts. Ive used thier cams/lifters off and on and of course thier oil pumps. I havent had any problems with thier products or heard of anyone else having problems.
I would say sure if the price is right.

ok. I know Melling makes every oil pump on the face of the planet. But I have to weary of parts that AutoZone sells (although these are not from AZ).

Yeah, they take the plunger and all the springs out of them and put new ones in.

Where did you get them from, and how much?
I'm replacing my cam soon, and I might have to buy a new set of lifters.
I don't really want to pay $10 a lifter, tho.
