As title says..........
using these vs. the 26918 beehives, more load, any long term effects on the HR lifters?
Thanks!

BTW, I`m going to use the new GM Racing CTS-V Caddy lifter.

 

Lots and lots of people use those springs. I have them on my daily driver for probably 15k with oem replacement lifters. Its very common to run them on stock lifters as there haven't been any good cheap alternatives for lifters until now.

 

Do you mean yet, or is there something I missed recently? I was getting ready to bite the bullet on some Morels just because I trashed a low mile stock lifter and am doing another rebuild now.

 

Yes, if you do a search there is a new gm performance lifter thats supposed to be awesome and pretty cheap at $220 a set.

 

Check this thread for the new Cadillac hydraulic roller lifters. http://web.camaross.com/forums/showthread.php?t=501293

 

Mike, I thought you had 26918's?

The 26120's can work but 99% of the time you don't need them and you have to do some other things to make them work on a head.

You're right. I read the thread wrong and thought he was asking if a lot of people run 918's on stock lifters. I've become what I fear most, one of the guys that responds but doesn't read the complete thread.

 

I thought they were 918s too They sure looked like it when I was over helping degree his new cam that you sent him. I thought the 26120's were a larger diameter?

 

Yeah they are much larger in diameter and taller as well.

 

I thought so Z95m6's springs looked identical to mine.

 

thats what i have for my setup with the new gm lifters.
