I agree that those lifters are an unusual failure, especially the one that has two sections broken off. All I can think of is that it was able to rotate after the first chunk broke off, then the other side got whacked when the lobe came around again. I never personally talked to the previous owner, so I didn't get the whole story on the car, just second hand info from the dealer that handled the sale. Those lifter bodies became a real hassle and ended up costing a fortune. I wish I had known then that you could get them from Terrill Machine.
