I see that one listed. 144 bucks. What about the lifters? Summit has a set for 94 bucks. PT # 66900-16
Need to get a timing chain/gears too.

Cam bearing replacement are a bit out of my skill level. I gotta stop somewhere. I see no reason to suspect they are bad. I've got great oil pressure. No visible excessive wear visible on the cam. I'm almost sure this engine has been rebuilt at some point.

The 4.6 non stock cam is $144?
I saw a 4.6 Crower on Summit's site for $275.
Is there a cheaper alternative that's better than stock?
I'm looking for a new cam right now.

I dunno if the 4.6 is different than my (alleged) 4.2 . But part number 50229 on Summit is listed at $144.

Looks like I was looking at solid lifters by mistake. Duh. The hydraulic lifters are part number 99284-16.

It has the applications all screwed up. It says 1971 -1980 Rover V8. Wonder if it's just screwed up web site info or if it's actually a different part.

I meant $249, not $275, sorry
That's all I saw for LR 4.6 at Summit, one cam for several engines.
I'll probably get it.

Yep

I was excited for a minute too, though the cam was $100 less than I thought...then I saw it was for a Buick, lol.
And, less parts, but more money...awesome.
