    Looking to purchase two Crower Groove Lock roller lifter for small dodge. They fit
    .904 bore. Here is a photo of what they look like. We have two that are cracked at the roller. [​IMG]

    Crower stopped making in 73 or so. They won’t make them also as I have been working with them for options. Crane made a similar groove lock for sbc as did bullet. We have a work around by making Chevy work. Just trying to match the set.

    Didn't I see some Isky lifters that they were advertising as the new hot setup. No connectors to break. Nope. Their key is at 90 degrees to Crower.

    I can't help you with Crower parts, but I do have a complete set of nos Schiefer roller tappets. They fit all early Hemi engines.

    If 2 of them are cracked how long before the others do the same thing? Id put a new set in before you have a roller come apart and suck all the pcs. up the oil pump.

    Thanks JC. This was in an old motor that had weak valve springs. We are just trying to bring it back to life. Thanks
