I'm running T&D shaft rockers with my offset lifters, I had a set of comp offset lifters that broke the link bars, they are thin and weak. The MRL lifetrs are awesome and show no signs of any funny wear or stress areas. I had to grind the lifter bores in my magnum block, they are taller than LA for the taller hydraulic lifters and dog bone retainers; lifters are one piece, not seperate cups, thses are the new version from MRL that clear 3/8" pushrods, I waited three months for these to come out. 2000 Dakota R/T, 408 magnum, 727, Indy heads 1000cfm 4150 carb, 93 octane fuel. motor; 10.258 @ 132.78 200 shot; 9.262 @ 144.69 racemagnum

I should go with this on my W-5s I waited three months for these to come out, he had done the resign to fit 3/8" pushrods and was testing them. They are the pro series with all the bells and whistles and ran me $650.00. They are VERY! well made and I am more than happy with them. They don't go to low and expose the oil band, I thought a I had oil pressure issue with them. But I found out couple weeks ago what that was, the grunt at the machine shop didn't clean my block properly. After I grind the lifter bores, I wanted to knock out all the oil galley plugs and clean the block real good with degreaser, galley brushes, then soap and water. Well I had to knock through half the valley length of carbon, gunk, and metal. I wasn't happy at all and let my machine shop buddy and owner know. 2000 Dakota R/T, 408 magnum, 727, Indy heads 1000cfm 4150 carb, 93 octane fuel. motor; 10.258 @ 132.78 200 shot; 9.262 @ 144.69 racemagnum

Would you need the offset pushrod seat for a W5 and I wonder if they would fit a Mopar 340 Siamese block. I clearanced (only between the lifter bores not the inside valley wall) my block to suit the 8043-16 I borrowed and haven't bought a set of lifters yet.

You may not need the offset lifters with the W5's I needed them with these huge Indy heads though.

I was mainly after feedback and by the looks of it, you are happy with the product. Have you used these lifters since the Comps broke or this is the first set you have purchased? Macka

Macka This is my first set after the comps broke, before I had a set of conversion lifetrs that were called "danno" lifters. They are the same lifter body of a factory hydraulic lifter but converted to solid roller and used factory magnum dog bones and retainer plate. I got these when I went to the indy heads and love them 2000 Dakota R/T, 408 magnum, 727, Indy heads 1000cfm 4150 carb, 93 octane fuel. motor; 10.258 @ 132.78 200 shot; 9.262 @ 144.69 racemagnum
