I never accused you of reboxing. Sounds like you're getting mighty testy and defensive. Usually when that's the case, somebody has something to hide.
Look, all I am trying to do is get my questions answered. I am not asking for a ******* MRL commercial. All I want is straight answers. "We have proof......" is not an answer. YOU might have proof, but where is it for me? Why have I not read in all the time I have been online (since 1999) about roller lifter failure or short life span?
You shouldn't have to bad mouth someone else's product to make yours look better if it really is and that is exactly what you did. I don't know of any other pressurized roller lifter on the market besides yours, yet somehow, you have still sidestepped my question. All I am asking for is proof for ME not YOU that all the other solid rollers have a short life span. If it's true, you should have no problem proving it. I've certainly had great difficulty finding it myself and I have the same internet you do.
I've not tried to bash your product or say it's reboxed. You brought that up yourself. I don't want a bunch of loose lipped salesman bullshit when I am talking about spending MY money. I want the truth and I want my questions answered. If you cannot do that, then I can just as easily do something different with my money.
I can understand your frustration but read this over from camp cams.
Note where they say the roller bearings and axle usually need to be replaced after each season of use.
Endure-X Solid Roller Lifter Rebuild Program
Today's roller lifters face grueling engine environments. Inadequate oiling, excessive spring pressures and valve lash, along with other factors, play a significant part in the failure of the roller, needle bearings and axle. COMP Cams® recognizes the high cost of new parts and designed the Endure-X Lifter Rebuild Program to help offset some of that cost.
The roller assembly is often the culprit in roller lifter failure. The lifter body can be buffed and the link bars replaced as necessary. However, the roller bearings and axle usually need to be replaced after each season of use or after any catastrophic engine failure. A sudden lack of motion is even more destructive than the sudden application of motion.
There is a small fee to replace worn or damaged parts, and replacement lifters may be purchased to replace defective or destroyed ones. This is often less than half of the cost of new lifters and ensures long, trouble free operation.
Rebuilt solid roller lifters go through the following steps:
1. Lifter bodies are disassembled and inspected for cracks.
2. Retaining grooves are inspected and cleaned.
3. Lifter bodies are thoroughly washed.
4. A new axle and roller assembly are pressed into the body, and new retaining clips are installed.
5. Lifters are reboxed and returned to the customer.
