    Default Ecotec Lifters

    I just need to know if these are the right lifters for the Ecotec? https://www.zzperformance.com/grand_...=109&catid=104

    Also OE 850, OE-R 875, difference?

    I have the OE-Rs on my L67 and the difference is they are anti bleed to allow happier upper rpm valvetrain harmony. Setting preload on them is a little tricky as there isn't much room for error whereas the stockers or OE (stock replacements) allow a bit more on preload.

    Both the OE ans OE-R have an upgraded bearing design over OEM

    From the ZZP site: OE-R lifters are preloaded and have to be installed between 1/4 and 3/4 turn (vs. 1/2 to 1.5 turns on stock lifters)

    My instructions said to go for 1/8th- 1/4 turn of preload. It was fun getting them spot on to say the least
