I'm in the process of rebuilding the 200 in my '66 fastback, and I have a question about the lifters. Got a cam kit with Sealed Power HT-2083 lifters, and one of them is different from the other 11. The OD, installed height (w/ pushrod) and oiling area is the same, but the body is slightly taller and the oiling hole is a little higher as well. Went to a local parts store to compare what they had, and it was the taller one. Anyone know if these lifters are interchangable? I can take some pictures if that would help. Thanks!!

Welcome to M&M !
One of the lifters is an old Johnson Tappet and the other 11 are Standerdyne.
They will interchange.

Alex, how does that work? Are the internal designs such that you get the same valve lift even though the lifters appear to be different lengths?
