Correct.  Old HD "B" lifters, S&S, and Fueling all look like Delphi to me.

Not exactly sure why people are so reluctant to replace lifters as a routine preventive maintenance.  Agree, if the design were better it shouldn't be needed, but the reality is what it is.  Once you have adjustable pushrods, a set of lifters with gaskets costs well under $200 and takes under 2 hours to replace.  Seems like a better option to me than a blown engine; ESP or not.

The lifters are not the root cause, but replacing them every 15k will fix the issue.

Took my '15 in for it's 30k service. Sure enough, one lifter was starting to go. Esp covers it and the oil change :2vrolijk_21:
