I installed the Comp Cams 850-1 and have almost 4k on them. Changed oil yesterday and all looks good.

From my understanding the lifters are good for 20-30k so me and a buddy went in halfsies on a full set (16) of the comp cams 875 limited travel lifters, figuring we would use them anyways. he is running them set 12 flats deep with s&s adjustables on woods 777's and they are quieter than a mouse in slippers

Hi
Im going to use SE 255 cams in my bike.
So you think one of those lifters will be ok with that cam?

I just finished using the comp limited travels in another build (107 hillside) with 585 cams ans the were so quiet I was laughing but your results may vary the ones with .200 of travel are the 850 and the .110 travel are the 875 for 200$ for 4 sets of them I'm very please with how they run and sound in both bikes

i would inspect your lifters first RonC unless you got mega miles on them, there is a spec in the manual for checking lifter and bore, recently changed cam and I re-used the stock ones as wear check all good

thanks
