Ran across JayCee's new tool steel lifters. Not sure of the weight but it is interesting that the pushrod cup is up higher so you can use a shorter pushrod.

If it is a one piece lifter it make the lifter heavier . In one picture it looks like inserts for the pushrod. A shorter rod has less weight...
would be interesting what the weight is and how they work

They have inserts in the Lifter.

I have yet to use a set although I am going to try a set soon. The weight of the 30mm head lifter is 84 grams.

How about those tool steel lifters that AJ Sims have or had, I understand they are good, just never heard anything about them. I think Jason said he tried them with good results. I actually have a set, but have not tried them yet. I sure Jack has tried his set with his BIG motors and with his level of quality, they gotta be good. The reason why I know, I worked at his shop in the machining end of it and the parts HAVE to be right, or they do not go out. The lifters are pricy, but if they work, they are well worth it, and I'm sure they are.

Those ones by Shawn Geers are lighter weight with the single oil groove. I cannot remember what they weigh though.

Did you run your engine now ? I think i know who did it , but i am not shure if i make some more lightweights . They are very expensive to manufacture and if there are some other avaliable.... The 94 gramms are still avaliable.

Udo,
Yes, I built a 74X94 engine using your 94g lifters and it was quite a nice experience upon initial start-up.
My next project requires a lighter valve-train.
Best regards ...

Anyone have any experience with Thorsten Piepers tool steel lifters?
I run T.Pieper lifters in my 2.2l. Nor probs. Two other clubmates even have Pieper lifters in their engines running. No probs.
They only thing to take caution at is that the pushrod needs to get exactly into the lifters. The lifters are very tight in the bore / pushrodhead. So take time for the pushrod/rockers assembley.
Have fun!
