    Crower Camsaver lifters

     



    I am trying to get my little 327 sbc done and off the engine stand. I have a comp. cams XE 262 in it (straight out of the box and into the engine) and it came with a box of hydraulic flat lifters. But after reading some of the posts on this site about hydraulic flat tappet lifter problems I thought I should look around and see what other manufacturers might offer. And I ran across a line of lifters that Crower makes called Camsaver. The name caught my attention so I called Crower Tech. and asked if these lifters could be used on a street car, daily driver type. He got back to me and said they can be and shouldn't be any problem. I am looking for a little piece of mind and I am also curious what you all think. I plan to follow the break-in word for word and use one of the camshaft break-in oil supplements. But again, just curious what you all think?

    Man, you just ain't happy unless you're pounding on someone, are ya????? There's not a lot of brand new original information out there, Lots of times Shawn spends a lot of time looking stuff up to help people and now you want to put him down for it......Sad, I'd say. Seems some people choose to try to make themselves look better by making someone else look bad...... Oh yeah, and he even has a digital camera and post pictures of his projects for all of us to see rather then just talk about them!!!!!!
