Hydraulic Roller Lifters
Just reading the other post on lifters has anyone tried the New Comp Cams Evolution Hyd Rollers with the cartridge and where they might be coming from? It sounds like it is an interesting design and quiet, we will see!
Part # CCA-85701-16 COMP Cams®Evolution Hydraulic Roller Lifters are the first lifters EVER created using the newly patented Hydraulic Cartridge Technology (HCT)! This revolutionary design offers the most reliable performance of any lifters in the aftermarket. .842 diameter; 2.475 seat height .150 travel / preload between .050" to .100" Will not clear factory valley pans

I asked the same question a while back. Got no response and went with Johnson lifters instead. It seemed like there just more success there.
I like the concept too. |

Exactly like the Comp Shaver lifters out side.Note the lifter body does not go much past the roller pin.Tom

I was told by someone a very reputable Pontiac engine builder that the best hyd roller for Pontiac currently on the market are made by Johnson Lifter, not Hy-Lift Johnson but Johnson. They are expensive most would not be willing to pay that much for lifters, but you get what you pay for.

I can’t see why they will not clear a non EGR factory valley pan.
They don’t look overly tall to me! What am I missing here? I mean I can see a issue on a 301 motor for sure!

Was told by my comp rep:
They are based on the comp solid lifter . they are about .200" taller. They have a .750" roller as opposed to the .700" dia. used on the convential roller lifter {857-16}. The adjuster is removable due to the taller lifter body. Available soon 2-3 weeks. Priceing $ 90+ more than 857-16 (WD price sheet) actual price could vary.

That all sounds pretty good Ken. I especially like the bigger wheel

a bigger wheel will change duration on the same lobe as a smaller wheel ?

If I had to guess, which is what I'm gonna do, I'd guess NO. Pushrod will change lengths.

A lot of benefits, no downside I'm aware of.
One Billy Godbold talks about is the lobe constantly trying to push the lifter back and move the camshaft around as it climbs the lobe, so the bigger wheel you have the less pressure angle you have and more force going straight up the pushrod, so less goofy stuff happening in his words. |

a larger wheel is in effect like putting a wider lifter on a flat tappet cam the lobe will come in contact with the lifter sooner in rotation and leave contact later, and thats duration

A larger wheel will get the valve opening sooner and closing later with a roller cam. With a sft, with say a .842 lifter, as long as the cam is making contact inside the edge of the lifter circle how could a larger lifter make a difference. ? A sft cam would have to be so large as to dig into the edge of a .842 lifter for a .904 lifter to be of any use. Never heard of it being done either. |
