Isky and Crower do not make their own lifters
They get them from the other Johnson
Back in the Day Isky had a Hyd cam for Vw's
Discontinued when the lifter vendor wanted a 50,000 part minimum order
now for the math challanged
you can have a fast action .842 cam or spread the same lobe over .904 and have less load
or you can add a little faster action to the .904
It's mostly during the middle of the lobe not the start or stop
and start and stop is where most rapid action designs go wrong
Like someone quoted Engle saying that Hughes wanted too fast an action
so what to do
make it easy off the seat, especially closing but make it faster on the flanks
you can have what overall is fast action without open and close fast action
Jones Motor Home cam is an example

These was Morel and Eaton roller lifters. If you consider the companies cheap then so be it. The Morels was $440 retrofit lifters. One of the morels would not pump up. The Eatons clattered like crazy upon start up no matter the adjustment.

Hughes "retro fit" lifter not pumping up!

The original poster said the lifters he used were Johnson,

I would say that nowadays, I doubt there is any brand of lifter that isn’t going to have some failures.

This has probably always been the case, but 30-40 years ago there wasn’t any internet to access and get feedback from all over the world.
If your friends and the people you knew at the track weren’t having problems with something in particular........you just didn’t hear about it.

Two brands named Johnson
Isky and Crower use one as do some other quality camgrinders
check out both websites

So let me get this straight.... I asked a question about hydraulic lifters in a Mopar friendly forum. Another member replies in a way that isn’t constructive or intelligent at all. I reply back the reason I went with a particular style of lifter. The other member calls me an idiot. You are a complete asshole and a disgrace to the community. You do not know me or what I have ever accomplished or built in my life. And to straight up call me an idiot when you can’t even answer a simple question? I think I may know who the idiot is here. So much for FABO being a fun place. I always recalled this place being a fun and knowledgeable crew. Oh well.
