Will the small block lifters and big block lifters work in the older Hemi's? Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure I used 440 hyd. lifters in my 392. Maybe someone else on the board could verify this for us.

Thanks for the feed back. I was talking to comp cams and Mancini racing and they sent me a big block cam instead of a small block cam. They told to keep the lifters, because the lifters for a big block are the same as a small block. I've seem to of read some where that the 392 would take the newer style lifters. I realize that they are the same size/.904, but the oil groove is slightly higher if I'm not mistaken on the 392 lifters that I've got. Thanks again 41hemi.
