He informed me that the only roller lifters they rebuild is the house brand MOREL!

So I am still looking for a rebuilder for the Comps and also thinking of switching brands for one that can be rebuilt.
Do the BAM lifters offer a rebuilding service?
Thanks!





That’s the difference between some guys and how I do things. It says right on their website that they build other lifters. I would call back and ask again if that’s false advertising or the truth. I would also call several dealers and ask. I don’t give up easily as there are lots of idiots manning the phones.

So I took the suggestion and contacted another Morel dealer.
This time it was Motorsports Unlimited from Brook Park, Ohio.
I sent my question to the contact info provided and have not heard back in over 3 days?
I hope the tech guy is on vacation and maybe hear something next week?

FWIW...MOST of the parts companies email tech line isn't worth the time to type it up from my experience. Just call em.
Having said that, Isky & Bullet have been good about emailing. twocents

I understand that feeling... I find that LS Jr is annoying and comes across almost like a car salesman in his videos.
