I too was shocked at the rapid changes to my new lifters post-rebuild. =

After only 6000 miles the NOS BMC lifters that I installed in my engine =
with a very low mileage "M" cam have started to deteriorate.=20
This engine has had a steady diet of VR1 non synthetic and it has had 4 =
changes in 6K miles.=20
Very disappointing.=20
I'm considering trying bucket type Buick lifters with longer push rods =
and a new cam.
Does anyone have experience with the durability of the old Buick lifters =
... getting a little desperate here.
Fortunately I caught this issue before it ruined the engine.
