USA made BAM solid roller lifters

Post by amc fan »

I saw a listing on EBAY for solid roller lifters from COBRAPOWEMARINE for: SBC, FORD, CHEVY,CHRYSLER, and, AMC ! Anyone know who is making them? Are they any good? They are priced around $500 dollars a set. Thanks Terry

It would be nice if he elaborated, since everyone knows his connection to Morel.

I have BAM rollers with bearings in two builds, which are giving good service. the lash is always spot on.

Well depending on when you bought them I would imagine that you did pay more than $500 considering the thread is 9 years old?
