Markus ,
Thank you for your research . I wish you had been involved when I was stumbling through this subject solo last summer.
The YoYo link in my previous post shows the Febi-Bilstein numbers also.

I urge anyone doing these hybrid lifter installations to closely measure the dimensions of the lifter crown. The part numbers won't tell you much of anything when it comes to precision differences between units.

The lifter crown is very important to lifter rotation, and therefore, life.

Very interesting comment!

Is this because when the lifter does not rotate, it will wear prematurely on a single spot?

Thank you!

PET lists the same number, all 24 so both exhaust and inlet, across all 986 engines.
