Resurfaced lifters

Babyblue66 said

I've read people suggesting to have lifters resurfaced, but has anyone here used them?
I hear people say it's fine, but I had a guy recently tell me the only time he had a lifter fail, it was a resurfaced set.

I’ve never had that service performed, but thinking about what that guy told you, it didn’t fail all that time in use up until it being resurfaced? Then it failed after being resurfaced? That tells me it most likely wasn’t resurfaced right, followed by possibly not being thoroughly cleaned, lubed, bad cam break-in
