Mike FrizieSteel on steel oil lubed lifters.
Anyone had and experience with this style of lifter? Was going to upgrade to bushed but saw these. Thoughts?

imakehpNot nit-picking, but remember it's not steel on steel...it's actually coated steel on cast iron
And those coated lifters usually live forever vs the lifter bores...and you can always have the bores bushed IF they do develop excess clearance down the road..

Mike FrizieSurely the roller axles aren’t iron ?

They are talking about the DLC coated axle running inside the wheel without needles or bushings.
