HI
i have a 66 440 and im wondering what the diffrence is in a pre 68 lifter and post 68 lifter. some compianys offer 2 diffrent ones and some only ofer a general big block chrysler lifter. what would happen if you just used a "big block chrysler"lifter vs a "pre 68 lifter" thanks.

info on the pushrods would also be appreciated.

the early pushrods have a different dimention tapered bottom end and required corresponding lifters (the cup) to match. Just get the regular lifters and you only need later pushrods.
