It's not the lifters that are failing. It's the fact that the oil band is in the wrong place. That prevents them from filling up when they are on the base circle. I modify the blocks so that is not a problem anymore. Your machine shop just hasn't figured out what the real problem is, they just blame the lifters, which do have the band in the wrong place, but the lifters work fine when block is modified. These are Hylift/Johnson slow bleed lifters so they do not have too much internal clearance.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
