about 4 years ago I got a set from berg for a friends engine they were around $45.00, a year later I ordered a set for my car they cost $85.00, this winter I checked theprice for Mikes car and they were around $129.00 ! Mike has the CB ones and so far they are working fine. The Berg adjusters are real Porsche 911 parts thats why the price jumped.

hope that Chevy is a Corvair, they are very quiet - hydraulic lifters and no adjustments!
