Stock roller lifters in a 150k shortblock...I cleaned them all, inspected them, put em back together, only to have one collapse...buy a new set of 16 mopar stock replacements, check them all, stick em in, and again one collapses...Not sure what the cause of it is though, since it was different ones that were collapsing
