I'd get one new bearing and one new seal and see if they are both tight in the registers where they belong If they are good, fly it. If they aren't, get a new housing end from Dr Diff, and take it to a rearend shop that does housing narrowing.

The picture with that listing shows an oil band. But it does say the picture is only "representative" of the lifters, and it does say in the part description that it does NOT have an oil band.

What I heard as a potential cause of roller bearing lifter failure was extended idling or low rpm operation in street cars. (Limited splash lube for the rollers).I do like the pressure port to the rollers. Basically your choice becomes "how much of a gambler are you"? $600 lifters, or $1600...

For giggles, I researched what my lifters now cost. $1611 dollars at summit !?! I guarantee I did NOT pay anywhere near that for mine! Heck, I think I paid around $200 for the Herbert (chinese?) solid roller lifters in my small block. No complaints about them either (it was more than a few...

MY opinion only! Not if you buy roller lifters with solid bodies. (No oiling band) Crowers solid rollers in mine. 1962 max block. No mods.

Frankly, considering how few choices there are left for 5 on 4, and how sketchy the supply, I'd take just about any sbp wheels I could find, if I had to have something other than the rallys you have. Fortunately, I've got 3 pairs of sbp centerlines for my 67 notch. Oh, and 15s will be fine...

As if we need another reason to despise insurance companies......

Doctors can lose their medical license if it's determined they prescribe to much pain meds.

Find the "dumbass "song on you tube. Dennis Steven Wright.

You seem to have a problem with me, asshole troll. Is that why your reaction score is almost nonexistent?

I don't know if that's true about American Racing. ET wheels/Team Three wil make a five spoke TT lookalike for 5 on 4..... but they get $500+ for each wheel. Boyd's used to offer a nice 17x7 and 17x8 TT lookalike, 5 on 4 , available from jegs or Summit, for around $225-250 each, but I'm not sure...

The Halibrand name and rights have changed hands so many times I've lost track. I'd be shocked if the wheels produced with Halibrand's name aren't chinese now. I'd be willing to bet Mike's are not Chinese, however. I bought some gorgeous American racing 15x10 torque thrust at a car show, a few...

I think toolmanmike (? right member?) has a set on his early Dart. They are a Halibrand knockoff, no longer produced.

I would run it lower than 11 to 1 too, but o.p. says he's at 4000 feet.

I have NOT read this whole thread, and my point may have already been covered, but I'm gonna comment anyway. Your head choice WILL be guided by the pistons you can find for a 413, assuming you won't be buying a set of mega dollar custom pistons for it. You'll need to calculate compression ratio...
