RE: TAPPETS

Chevy small block lifts are the same. Check on ebay for Harley lifters and you will find that Gaterman products (bgater on ebay) sells a whole set of Harley "B" equivalent lifters for like $48. Falcon also sells Harley lifters on ebay which I believe are the Chevy lifters for less, I think it is like $30. Steve (maineultraclassic) is going to use the Falcon's I believe. If you do a search for his posts, he had a link to the ebay lifters.

RE: TAPPETS

I used Crane lifters for a Chevy. They are the exact same lifter that Crane markets for HD's just with a different part number. A call to Crane confirmed this. The Chevy part number is 10530. I bought a set of 16 from Summit for 200 bucks shipped, used 4 and sold the other 12 to others at 50 bucks per 4. So, I ended up with 50 bucks in my lifters....not too bad, IMO.

Still not sure which ones I'm going to use............I want the Gaterman ones but he can't ship for a couple of weeks. I've emailed Falcon about theirs, but they haven't got back to me yet.

RE: TAPPETS

Does anybody know the GM part number? I work for a Chevy Dealership and I can find out the dealer cost if i can get the GM Part number.

Thanks,
Haywood
