What is the main benefit of the precisely milled oil metering band?

The oil metering band is milled to an exact depth to prevent too much oil from being delivered to the top of your engine. This helps maintain proper lubrication levels and can prevent issues associated with over-oiling.

Why is the precise radius grind on the lifter face important?

The lifter face is ground to a precise radius to ensure proper break-in when the engine is first started. This careful grinding is also crucial for guaranteeing a longer service life for the lifters.

Are these lifters suitable for a performance build?

These are solid mechanical lifters built to tight tolerances, making them a well-built component for engine rebuilds. Proper installation and break-in procedures are essential for optimal performance and longevity.

Product Details

You're getting a set of 12 solid lifters for your Ford 6-cylinder engine, specifically the 240 and 300 cubic inch displacements. These are mechanical flat tappet lifters, meaning they require proper adjustment and lubrication, and they're built to very tight tolerances to ensure they perform correctly in your engine.

COMP Cams mills the oil metering band to an exact depth. This is important because it prevents too much oil from reaching the top of your engine, which can cause issues. The face of each lifter is also ground to a precise radius. This careful grinding helps ensure proper break-in when you first start your engine, and it's key to getting longer life out of the lifters themselves. They have a standard .875-inch diameter and a shell-type construction.

These lifters are a solid option for a wide range of Ford vehicles, including models like the Bronco, E-Series vans, and F-Series trucks from the 1960s through the 1990s. If you're rebuilding or refreshing the valvetrain on one of these Ford 6-cylinder engines, these lifters are designed to fit right and perform reliably.
