The fact that Chevy V8 lifters are back ordered is a bad sign. Perhaps they have had a whole production run that is bad and are scrambling to make replacements. You may get just someone else's returned lifter, just to get you off their back. In addition if the cam goes south during break in you only get a cam and lifter replaced under warranty. The rest of the damage is on you. That means new bearings and possibly rehoneing or worst case a new bore and new pistons. Not fun and very aggravating.

Worst case scenarios really suck don't they? I'd heed the advice here and send that batch back and shop elsewhere.
