Sealed Power lists the 2148 as the replacement lifter for hundreds and hundreds of applications from 1984 to 2018. Not only for the Iron Duke and apparently all roller littered traditional SBCs, but...

It is a PONTIAC lifter!!!

OK, I guess Comp Cams really means Compromised Cams then. Maybe they do this to lock people into buying a cam that only they make. Maybe they can pull this off with Ford people, but I hope that...

Does anyone have one of these Comp XR288HR cams that you can do the straight edge and feeler gauge test that JC455 demonstrated so well in his video? If you can get a feeler gauge thicker than...
