i just looked on migweb, maybe they dont know about this mod yet? is it a courtenay only thing i wonder?

i need to know who thegsi bought his car off so i can ask for that person when i ring courtenay as he will know more about it i guess and could help me out.

could do with finding out this info before the 29th really

u have a c20let rite? so u obviously know that u cant put lifters meant for non aspirated engines onto such high compression output engines as a let so why are you taking the piss? im not a mechanic, the guy who i bought my car from told me this so if its not true then im sorry. i thought you could do it but if u know best than thats that.

the c20let is low compression, it uses the same lifters as a c20xe which is high compression

if anything the lifters for a let arent working as hard as for an xe due to the duration and lift of the cams

as far as I know the c20let, c20xe and c16xe lifters are all the same (confirms it in both my Kent and Newman cams catalogue)

what lifters do you need nic? I have a few different spec sets in stock. inc hydraulics for a higher lift cam with stronger springs, standards and solids with shims......

I think what Jake means is do you need any paticular spec of lifter for any reason or just a standard one?
