Is this a good price for hydraulic lifters, and will they fit my car?

£52 for 8, so £104 for the lot. I thought these were £50 each?:S

Also will they fit my 172 ph2 53 plate?

cheers.

Cant see why not. I brought two sets from that company for a couple of 8v vuxhall engines i built and they were spot on!!!

what are they for may i ask?

They automatically take up the clearance between the rocker and valve so you dont have to keep adjusting them like on citroens.

dave by the time you get them fitted + new cambelt and labour for a couple hundred more you could fit a second hand engine

I have thought about that, £500 for an engine, or have been quoted under £1k for one fitted, low mileage.

But I have been told today that the noise is normal tappet noise and I shouldnt worry.lol.

give it an enging flush and then put some decent oil in there, should be fine, either that or its the carbon canister
