I am testing a set now with an FK41. I wanted to see how kind our oil was to them more than anything else. So far so good, two UOA completed and wear metals are lower than I expected.

Wasn't there some discussion about the new Engle lifters and cams having a higher RC number, 60 I think, than the older product. They are compatible with each other but not necessarily with older and other mfg cams. So, new lifters and older cam may not be a good choice.

Yes, those new lifters have harder Rockwell reading than before... That's why they placed their name on the outside, so people can ID them from the other plain-wrapped lifters...

I am just using the car as a daily driver for now, and gathering UOA every 1K miles. I didn't have any UOA samples from a T1 with these oils, so I decided to get the baselines from the new Engle units since the brand is so broadly used. Impressed so far. |

We have a set[maybe the 1st set] inside a 2387 turbo engine with fk48 and k 800 springs to give them a good workout,this winter strip down revealed they look very nice still,not alot of miles on them yet though
