I'm maybe around 1000 miles on the SS3 cam, CHE trunions, etc. I didn't pull the heads, so stock lifters. Rev limit is set to 7200. Been shifting at 6800ish when getting on it.

Nice. My shifts are set to 6800, red line is 7000, just to be safe.

Well on these lifters I have in my build, I called my builder/tuner that did my cam swap and everything else, and he told me when I asked what lifters he used in my engine, I didn't mention the Delphi's, he told me they use the GM Performance lifters, in ALL their builds, not the Delphi LS7's. He said they never ever used Delphi's in anything. So I feel better knowing that. This is the part number he said they use. I looked them up.
