Hey all Iam going to be rebuilding my cylinder head and after having a little look it seem the cam followers have quite a bad groove in them where the cam has been making contact, Iam wondering what are the best make to buy , i have seen ones on the bay but don't want to get something that's make of chocholate and totally balls, also going to replace the thrust pads and lifters while Iam at it.
Any help and info will be much appreciated and rep will be given ; )
Cheers

Sticking with hydraulic or you thinking of solid lifters? What cam are you running?
as always, try elringparts. visit their website & ask for your nearest stockist. they do all sorts of ks/trw stuff
