comp cams lifters

Just curious. When I installed my cam kit in my 300/6.I used comp cams lifters. Some guys frown on comparison lifters..did I make a mistake?

I think the guys are silent because they don't understand the question. Can you elaborate?

I too don't understand the question, but as of about 10 yrs ago Rhoads lifter's made everybody's lifter's. No matter who or how they were sold.

Run'em! Who ever scared you, If something happened to them they more then likely did something wrong when breaking it in.
