COMP Cams Lifter Tool Steel.875in Uncoated

If you're rebuilding the top end of a Ford V8 engine, especially one using a cast camshaft, these COMP Cams Tool Steel Solid Lifters are a solid option. They're built from tool steel, which is notably tougher and lighter than standard steel, helping to reduce the overall weight of your valve train. This can lead to less friction and lower operating temperatures, which is always a good thing for engine longevity and performance.

These lifters feature a .875-inch diameter and a .012-inch EDM oiling hole. The EDM oiling hole is a smart detail that directs extra oil right to the camshaft lobe, ensuring it stays well-lubricated. This is particularly important when running cast iron cams, whether they're factory nitrided or not. The tool steel construction also offers excellent wear resistance, meaning these lifters are built to last through many miles and demanding conditions. They have a seat height of 1.95 inches and an oil band height of 1.02 inches, with a .50-inch oil band width, all contributing to their precise operation within the engine.

This set includes 16 lifters, enough for a full V8 application. They are designed for a direct fit in a wide range of Ford vehicles from the mid-60s to the late 60s, including popular models like the Ford Mustang, Falcon, and various Galaxie and Fairlane variants. When you're putting together a performance engine or a reliable rebuild, using well-made components like these lifters can make a significant difference in how smoothly and efficiently your engine runs.
