From what I've read they quit making the B lifters and I'm not sure if I got the C's or B's,and that the C's aren't as good.

If I were needing lifters right now I would go with crane or AMS. AMS are the guys that made the old "A" series lifter for harley. I wouldn't run the "C" series lifter if you gave them to me. Or you can try and find some "B" lifters out there somewhere. Or if you want some high dollar lifters get Woods Lifters. http://www.woodcarbs.com/dirlifters.htm
