Low Rider S SE110 Lifter Failure?
#31
absolutely, when the 255 cam gets thrown in the bin I'll go with some S&S lifters. You are right about the compression, the 110 is only 9.2:1. I am after a cam that I can run at stock compression for the short term, but will also fair well when/if I go to 117ci. I know there is no "do it all" cam, but surely there is something that can somewhat meet both requirements?

if a lifter just failed probably no engine issues later. not leaving metal everywhere just not pumping up or bleeding oil. i would be more concerned about initial engine oil pressure vs a lifter going bad. but anything is possible. inspecting the can and lifter when its apart will tell you if metal has gotten anywhere internal. correct oil?? water in oil? keep us posted

stock pipes have a tapered end and the gaskets are tapered, the aftermarket pipes are usually square flat ends and the gaskets are flat for those, if dealer did it not sure what they did, ive read posts were tapered gaskets were left in with aftermarket, but I don't think they would seal too good since the flat pipe end would only touch on an outside corner in the tapered stock gasket. maybe the dealer or who ever did your pipe would remember, I was just wondering it it is exhaust leak your hearing more than the crappy lifters, sounds like u still have lots of warranty time to burn up by the mileage. and if u did the lifters and any thing else goes wrong they will blame it on a superior s&s lifter
I really couldn't hear anything abnormal as well in your first video...
