COMP Cams Lifter Tool Steel.904in Uncoated

Sportsman Lifters from COMP Cams are designed to be a premium and lighter weight upgrade over Endure-X Lifters and a value alternative to the Elite Race option. Sportsman Lifters are offered in two configurations: a standard/traditional needle bearing axle/wheel design or an optional bronze bushing axle/wheel setup. And for Chevrolets, there are also left or right offset pushrod seat options. Each design features two pressurized EDM oil feeds to the axle, along with an edge orifice feed to the wheel. This design delivers a more reliable oil feed than most other options on the market. Sportsman Lifters also feature a shallower oil band than competitors’ versions for increased strength and rigidity, while internal machining helps to reduce weight. The body design utilizes a skirted wheel that strengthens the lifter ears and also provides more contact area with the lifter bore for further lifter stability. In addition, staked axles eliminate clips and provide robust axle retention. This permanent axle retention feature increases the stiffness of the lifter ears and helps prevent the ears from spreading. Sportsman Lifters are built from 8620 premium steel for increased strength and wear resistance and feature a captured link bar design. They utilize a tapered and slotted link bar tower for reduced weight and improved aesthetics. The lifters also feature a tall body to enable use in both standard and .300″ tall lifter bores – the result is increased strength and less lifter bore wear.

Certain engines respond better to a light lifter pre-load because it recovers more quickly from any bad harmonics in the valve train. Others work better with a heavy pre-load because oil volume is reduced under the plunger, which increases lifter stiffness. COMP Cams Short Travel Hydraulic Roller Lifters let you have the advantages of both light pre-load and reduced oil volume, producing the most stable and highest-revving hydraulic lifter available. COMP now offers an XD version of these lifters that features a heavy-duty tool Steel Pushrod seat. This adds strength and durability in Xtreme Duty Applications such as turbo drag cars and offshore powerboats. The lifters are available for a variety of Chevrolet, GM LS and Chrysler engines.
These short travel retro-fit XD hydraulic roller lifters feature a billet seat and short travel. These lifters’ short travel allows for light pre-load and reduced oil for the highest revving lifter for factory, RHS, LSX and Warhawk LS.
