Well Clay Smith was a wash. They are "USA" made in the same sense that Johnson lifters are, their supplier. "Made in the USA" is a qualified statement. Size wouldn't be a problem considering that Johnson is supplying, but where the blanks come from is.
Topline Hylift is on my list to contact so that I can find out sizing options and whom they supply. Or I'll go through SEL to find out. They are mentioned over and over as being truly American made, to include the all important raw materials. I will ask the qualifying questions I have developed to find out if they are truly making a US product from the iron ore in the ground to final finish work. Morels and Morel/Eaton (PBM) are on the list too. Rhodes too. Scorpions, if they make their own, and they tell me where the raw materials come from. Summit, once I find out which line is genuine US ( as in Hylift or even Morel- high-end ). Crane -no- for now Schneider-no Clay Smith- no Steve ps Mexican made works if it is in a US company owned factory (Eaton) and they collaborate with someone like Morel |

Forgot to post this response to this thread: For those wondering about the high energy and the pro magnum hyd lifters that Comp Cams sells, here is what their tech line indicated:
Hi,
The actual measurement for the lifters would be, .9042, and the seat heights are 1.9015. There is about a 0.0004 max deviation between the few I measured. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,

As more results come in they'll be listed. As to yes's and no's, those are personal preference. If the lifters are good quality, fit well, backed by a solid guarantee, and excellent customer service, those are valuable features. Steve
