I can use Engle lifters...but I have already paid for a set of Scat lifters.
Modok would you use the Scat lifters? |

I ran some Scat lifters probably those in a single port years ago, took the engine apart and put in a welded CCW crankshaft at 5000 miles the lifters were perfect re-ran them and the W-100 without any problems. Engle Lifters are heavy.

What you need to do is see if the machine shop will take back the reground cam and sell you a new Engle cam, then your Scat lifters will be fine.

CB needs to do a lot better job of describing their parts and exactly what they fit,
If CB would organize all their cams on one chart they would sell a lot more cams.
