Historical curiosity?
Looks a lot like a stock German lifter.
If it weighs 86-88 grams or so it surely is.
The OE lifters were hollow(that's why they are lighter), and have a pressed-in hard insert for the pushrod.
Some of them have a VW stamp on them some do not.


I'm not sure if this is really appropriate or not, but I discovered today that NC Cams (I referenced a post he made at CNCzone) was in fact Dennis John Novotny, of NC cams in Ann Arbor Michigan. He passed away in early 2009 at age 58. Many of the extremely informative posts he made at CNCzone.com were in fact made while he was undergoing medical treatment. I have been paying my respect by learning more about this man's incredible achievements in life. May he rest in peace.
