    CIT Poweraddict, help me

    Getting swapmeet ready, I am pretty sure I wont find any Buick lifters so I am researching what else I can use for my engine project.

    I would like know:
    What's the difference in plunger height between a chevy and a buick lifter?
    Will other lifters interchange and what are the plunger height in those?

    Chebby lifters have a .060 deeper plunger depth than the buick ones. I have clevite chevy anti pump ups in my 455 but you'll need some sort of adjustability in your valvetrain to use them correctly. I have roller rockers.
