COMP Cams’ Offset Sportsman Solid Roller Lifters for Chevrolet applications are premium-quality, high-value components designed for sportsman and professional racing along with high-end street machines. These lifters come in both needle bearing and bushing configurations and are available with 0.160-inch left and right offset pushrod seats.
These new Offset Sportsman Solid Roller Lifters from COMP are designed to be a premium, rebuildable upgrade over Endure-X Lifters and a value alternative to the Elite Race option. They are offered in two configurations: a traditional needle bearing axle/wheel design or an optional bronze bushing axle/wheel setup. They are available with both left and right offsets for race heads that have had pushrods relocated to maximize airflow. Each design features two pressurized EDM oil feeds as well as an edge-orifice feed to the wheel. This delivers a more reliable oil feed than most competing options. Sportsman Lifters also are designed with a shallower oil band that delivers increased strength and rigidity, while internal machining helps to reduce weight.
The body utilizes a skirted wheel that strengthens the lifter ears, and the skirt also provides more contact area with the lifter bore for further lifter stabilization. In addition, staked axles eliminate clips and provide robust axle retention. This feature increases the stiffness of the lifter ears and helps prevent the ears from spreading. Offset Sportsman Lifters are built from 8620 premium steel for increased strength and wear resistance, and feature a captured, stainless steel link bar design. The lifters also utilize a tapered and slotted link bar tower for reduced weight and improved aesthetics. Overall they weigh less than the Endure-X option. Finally, they feature a tall body to enable use in both standard and 0.300-inch-tall lifter bores—the result is increased strength and less lifter bore wear.
COMP Cams’ Chevrolet Offset Sportsman Solid Roller Lifters are designed for big- and small-block Chevy applications. They are available in pairs or full sets of 16.
