[Healeys] 100 lifters

[Michael Salter]

After only 6000 miles the NOS BMC lifters that I installed in my engine
with a very low mileage "M" cam have started to deteriorate.
This engine has had a steady diet of VR1 non synthetic and it has had 4
changes in 6K miles.
Very disappointing.
I'm  considering trying bucket type Buick lifters with longer push rods and
a new cam.
Does anyone have experience with the durability of the old Buick lifters
... getting a little desperate here.
Fortunately I caught this issue before it ruined the engine.
