Another small detail on the Redzone lifters,,,,,they hit the thicker lifter bore on the megablock down


I am following this thread closely, I am building a Mega block for a customer now that has always run a solid flat tappet cam but wants to go to a solid roller cam this time. The Isky Red Zone lifters are on the short list for now. What part of the lifter is hitting the lifter bore? I am assuming the link bar? Is it because the lifter is too short? Any other things to be concerned about? Also what advantage is the AMC lifter over the Mopar(besides the pin oiling)?

Thanks, Brian


Yes,the link bars hit the lifter boss so the wheel did not hit the cam lobe.

HEMI-ITIS has no cure.
