I’m rebuilding my top end and I need to know if the lifters for the vehicle listed above SL model are the same size as the VR4. I can’t tear it down rn because it’s my dad. Thank you. -Rosko

Which engine does the 3000GT have? There are three options. The SOHC, DOHC, or turbo charged. I believe the DOHC and turbo engine are the same engine, just the addition of the turbo. However, the lifter for the VR4 appears to be the same for the SOHC engine but it is different for the DOHC and turbo.

So let me know what engine that has and that will tell us if they are the same. Thanks
