Clevite Conventional Hydraulic Lifters
Lifter, Hydraulic Flat Tappet, Buick/ Chevy/ Oldsmobile/ Pontiac, Each

if it's listed for Buick and Olds, those are likely the 2.3L Quad 4 lifters, which are 2mm larger in diameter than the 2.4L. I don't remember what the dimensions are though... can't recall.

You could theoretically bore the cam carriers for the larger bore lifters.... but why bother?

I re-used my old lifters when I changed cams. No problems yet. If I was going to replace them, I would have just used regular GM lifters meant for the 2.4L.

john the 2.4 was in all those cars


just make sure the lifters are for the 96-02 and you would be ok


and i looked at the application chart and it shows to be for the 2.4

33mm in the 2.4, 35mm in the 2.3

My bad...

Buick? I can't think what car had the 2.4L

Olds Alero? I guess...

Pontiac Grand Am, Sunfire...
