Some incorrect info there and a couple of words spelled wrong.

Many people have been using lifters in flathead race engines that weigh LESS THAN HALF that of his. He needs to add the word "adjustable" to the description.

The ad was probably written by an ad copy guy that had no clue what he was writing about.

This is what I was talking about.

"These 67.1 gram weight lifters are the lightest flathead performance lifters in the world."

Just more advertising bullshit.
