Engine fms roller lifters

wow im glad I did some research. It appears fms sells 2 different sets of lifters for our application. One necessitates head removal to fit in the bore. Those are the ones with 3 rings around the center section. evidently the ones designated with an H at the end of the part number (which are more expensive) are the correct ones to use if you do not want to remove the heads.

I ended up ordering a set of DNJs which at least from the picture look to be the correct ones. plus the online vendor advertises free one day shipping.

Interesting. For what it’s worth, LMR says it’s necessary to remove the heads for the M-6500-R302h. For the M-6500-R302, it says removal of the heads MAY be necessary.

why go through all that trouble unless you are replacing head gaskets. Doesnt make sense that they sell lifters that wont pop right in.

I agree
