Rex,

I didn't check your math but I do know about what your saying. I know they put
Ford lifters in Chevy's to improve performance(changing the cam profile-also) Also
when rollers are outlawed, "mushroom lifters" were used when the rules permitted.

About 2 years ago, on ebay, a set of NOS "B" lifters sold for about $125.00. Jim is
right on about the Chrysler flathead lifters...I have them in my "B" engine. I've even
heard that they are putting Chevy lifters in 948-1275 CC British BMC engines!
