Would you risk it? What would you do?

you can certainly have a set of lifters refaced but this malarkey of everything being crap for the last 25 years is just FUD

i've installed countless cams in the last decade alone and out of the very few problems i did encounter maybe one of them was attributable to lifters. maybe. i also don't use crap lifters and adhere to a very detailed and strict break in procedure.

maybe i'm just lucky. maybe it's all that clean living that i've been doing. who's to say, really.
