AMC Hyd. Roller Lifters

The COMP CAMS AMC Hydraulic Roller Lifters are a complete retrofit valve lifter set specifically designed for AMC V8 engines. This 16-piece lifter set provides an option for those looking to upgrade to hydraulic roller technology, which can enhance performance in classic and vintage AMC powerplants. These lifters are particularly beneficial for builders and restorers aiming to improve engine reliability and efficiency.

Featuring a 0.904-inch outer diameter and a link bar design, these hydraulic roller lifters maintain proper valve train geometry and stability during operation. The hydraulic design automatically adjusts for valve lash, accommodating engine wear and thermal expansion, which simplifies maintenance. Additionally, roller bearings on the lifter foot help reduce contact stress with the camshaft, potentially allowing for higher RPM capabilities.

Engine builders converting AMC V8 engines to hydraulic roller lifters will find this COMP CAMS set essential for modernizing their valve train while maintaining compatibility with factory components. While the retrofit design aims for easy integration, some specific engine setups may still require minor modifications. This lifter set is an excellent choice for those looking to enhance performance without sacrificing reliability.
