The gentleman at BAM tells me they will last 3 times as long as the bronze bushing. Very durable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIxaesJ190U http://youtu.be/lCZAaN7fFLg

They really look nice and i’m looking for lifters for an all out drag eng.....no street use. Thx 1.50 60Ft. , 10.75@ 127MPH Hauling 3900 LBS.

I hope they work with bushed bores because my next project has them and i want to use the same lifter. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIxaesJ190U http://youtu.be/lCZAaN7fFLg

I had a set of race pistons with DLC pins.

That steel has to be harder than woodpecker lips or it's going to have issues. We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind. - Stu Harmon
