TIII lifter alternatives

I think I have a few sets available. Just be sure to send some vaseline my way.

Just got a set from Rock Auto. Delivered from Great Briton in 2 days. Received 12 that will drop in and 4 that need the Mercedes disk.

Are the sending different kinds or did you order 12 of one and 4 of the other?

I ordered 16. Got a split shipment of 12 and 4. Two different suppliers. Part number was the same for both types.

I ordered a couple of hundred directly from the manufacturer. They are schedule to arrive from overseas next Friday. If anyone wants to buy a set of 16, they will be on our site for $220 a set

Hey guys,
I know this is an old thread but since it looks like a few of you have replaced these lifters .............

Does anyone have any hints as to getting the lifters into the rocker arms ? I have a head I am working on for a customer and he bought a set of lifters from FWDP but I am having a tough time getting them to go in to the rocker arm without hanging up on the teflon ring at the bottom of the lifter.

Any thoughts ?

Thanks,
Bill

I use a small C-clamp and a couple rags to cushion the rocker arm to prevent it from getting scratched. With the C-clamp, you can squeeze them in and not worry about the lifter disc doing a summersault in the lifter bore and ending up upside down.

washers #113-055-00-76
lifter #113-050-03-80 (intake), 113-050-00-80 (exhaust)

order 16 intakes, the exhaust have a restrictor inside.

So we don't want the restrictor? Was kinda unclear about that on the other site. Wonder why the exhaust has a restrictor and the intake doesn't?

upon looking up those part numbers i'm finding that the 03-80's are exhaust and the 00-80 are intake?

Any verification on this, and why we would or would not want the restrictor in the lifter?
