I had a question about some lifters. I'm in the market for a Comp Cam Cam Kit that comes with hydraulic roller lifters for an LT1. It shows that the lifters don't have a link bar. Now I don't know if this is a stupid question, but is a link bar required for lifters? If so how can I find the right link bar for the lifters I'm interest in purchasing? I want to buy this Comp Cam Cam Kit that includes almost everything. (1.6 rockers I already have).
What more would I need? Are pushrod guides, lifter retainers, and lifter guides also necessary? I want to be able to know what more parts I would need that would allow for this cam kit to function properly.
Ray, this kit comes with OEM style lifters which means you just reuse your origional guides and retainer plate. LT1 heads already have guide plates on them i believe. When you get the intake off you will see the retainer plate and guides for the lifters, all the guides do is keep the lifter from turning. This keeps the roller wheel rolling on the cam.
