Hylift Johnson Lifters Quality Decreasing?

Uhhh, if the cheap $4.99 Melling lifters are so good, wouldn't y'all think Lunati, Hughes,
et al would be buying them from the same source..........................
I am not disputing some may have been lucky with Mellings....but it is a crap shoot.

It is not just the radius on the lifter that affects if it will survive, it is also the hardness....which you cannot see.
