Anybody know what I have here? Thanks in advance! yes they will work but if the hole in the top is more than around .050" . . i would use oil restricter push rods with a .040" hole . . if you are building a high perf engine, i would do some oiling system upgrades because these engines have inherent oiling problems.

barnett468 418 Report post Posted January 6, 2015 Do you know the difference between the 6500 A and 6500 D? the only difference i am aware of on the lifters is the hole size on top . . the last digit often designates some change to a part but the parts are still interchangeable . . as far as any internal difference goes, ford lifters were all pretty much the same.

barnett468 418 Report post Posted January 6, 2015 thank you no prob you're welcome . . just make sure the oil hole in the side of the lifter does not come above the bevel in the top of the lifter bores. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
