A direct replacement for the Schubeck ceramic-foot lifter and hardened to 64 Rockwell, these lifters provide the strength and toughness necessary to operate at both higher RPM and higher spring pressures.


I dont know about that part, with the poor (motor eating) quality of Joes lifters when he went to H--- in a handbag im not sure if id even print that....

I would like to hear from one who has used them though.....sorta looks like the nascar coated lifters...

Ive been wondering when alot of the coatings and such used in nascar and others would trickle down to being used other places.

Trend builds super high quality stuff so I'd trust them. If you're thinking of going that way you might want to talk to Mike Jones at Jones Cam Design. He has a lot of experience with tool steel lifters and can grind cams that will work with them.

wonder if you could use these with a flat cam that would approach the performance of a mild street roller? And would you have to break them in like a normal lifter?

Well if you match them up with some high ratio rocker arms you could definately get pretty good results.
