Thanks fastdave,

link below should have what you are looking for

http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showpar ... Id=11_4320

1985 2.5 euro piston part numbers for high and low comp, above site is good for all part numbers for your car, I'm in Australia and would probably get lifters from Pelican parts in the US, cheers.

All M20 lifters are essentially "solid" rather than hydraulic.

Is this for lairy cam reasons?
