<VV> GM Lifter

[BBRT]

John,

Google says it is a replacement for all GM lifters form 55-70? Anyway, it is 
sold on eBay as a replacement for a regular V8 lifters. Early lifters were 
different inside, however, a V8 lifter will work fine. Ony question becomes 
when you want to rev above say, 6500 rpm. I would use hte ones wiht the 
deepest cup where the pushrod fits.
