Thanks for the offer Tyvokka. I've got a bead on them cheaper elsewhere. $240 seems to be the cheapest going price around, such as bursons. Repco were just a joke on pricing retail, and still a laugh with manager price.

Sorry Tyvokka but I bought 16 lifters from Rockauto on 13th June (this year) for AU$89-90 plus post. I also bought a rocker arm & fuel pump o-ring, total was AU$191-76.

Most importantly though, I should have replaced the lifters when I rebuilt the engine. It developed a misfire which turned out to be lifters collapsing.

Live & learn

Cheers,

Sure, no worries mate.

There's a set on amazon for $79 as well I thunk. Chinese ones will prolly be $15.

I should've said these are mopar performance hydraulic lash adjusters I got from Airram. They were US$278.10 + S&H.

I wanted a solid donk for my supercharger so went for the best I could.
