COMP Cams Solid Roller Lifters (Needle Bearing) Ford Small Block

If you're building a high-performance Ford Small Block engine, like a 289, 302, or 351 Windsor, these Sportsman Solid Roller Lifters from COMP Cams are a solid choice. They're designed to handle the demands of aggressive camshaft profiles and higher RPMs, offering a significant upgrade over stock hydraulic lifters. This set features a needle bearing design for the axle and wheel, which helps reduce friction and wear, especially important when you're running a solid roller camshaft.

What sets these lifters apart is their focus on oiling and strength. They feature two pressurized oil feeds directly to the axle and an edge orifice feed to the wheel, ensuring consistent lubrication where it's needed most. The oil band is shallower than many competitors', which increases the overall strength and rigidity of the lifter body. COMP Cams also machined these lifters internally to reduce weight and used a skirted wheel design that adds strength to the lifter ears and provides better stability in the bore. The axles are staked in place, eliminating clips and providing robust retention for increased stiffness and to prevent the ears from spreading under load. Built from 8620 steel, these lifters are made for increased strength and wear resistance, and the tall body design allows them to work in both standard and .300" taller lifter bores, reducing wear on your engine block.

This set includes 16 lifters, enough for a V8 engine, and they feature a captured link bar design with a tapered and slotted tower for reduced weight and a cleaner look. If you're aiming for serious performance and reliability in your Ford Small Block build, these lifters are a well-built component designed to last.
