Looks like I have a lifter or two going away. Anyone happen to know if I have to remove the A-429 heads to swap roller lifters?

On a bbf you should not have to, just remove the intake

I did not have to pull heads to change roller lifters on mine.
Using Crower HIPPO lifters.

Comp Cams has a rebuild policy for those lifters.

Don't know if that will work from here in Australia. Probably just about cheaper and quicker to pick up a new set.

Including shipping costs ... you are probably correct.

Just looking for the part number and I see there are 3 different types of Endure-x roller lifters for this engine. I'm not sure what's in there.

Can anyone tell me what the difference is and which ones I need? I'm running T&D rockers if that makes any difference.
