Aircooled Technology Type 4 lifters!

The prototypes are being made as we speak! They will be getting ran in our spintron as soon as we get them for thousands of cycles!

Get this, these lifters are going to be so bad ass that you no longer need a cam break in, and can swap them from cam to cam just like ceramics!

We will be testing camshaft hardness with them to ensure the hardness is correct.

After these are perfected then comes the Type I super light vesrions and tha roller arangements!

you got a couple of clones working for you?

every time i log on to the shop talk you are annoucing a new devlopment and I expect you are still knocking out engines to pay the rent as well.

whats special with these lifters then? What they made from or is it top secret?

keep up the good work

I(personally) have taken a year break to get some new things developed, and tested... This is just month #2 of the year so LOOK OUT!

We are still doing just as many engines as ever, and my new program has let me get out of that loop a wee bit and venture into all kinds of new test work.

I will be starting a list in a few days.. I would like to get 20 customers to buy them at a discount and do some other real time testing as well before we sell them for retail.

Jake, will they be available ...say .002" oversized to allow for proper finishing of the bores? Ray

Beta testers? If you want a type 4 newbie's opinion...

We may make some oversized lifters, but its very dependant upon the quantities that are ordered. These have to be bought 20 sets at a time, unlike the ceramics.

Sign me up. It's getting to be about time for me to buy the rest of the parts I need for my 2.0L.

I may be in on the deal, depending on cost (I'm poor, but really don't want to risk my engine on crappy lifters and can't afford ceramic).

Are these different than the ones in your other thread?
