Externally 1.7(CA), 1.8(AP) & 2.0 (CJ) Solid lifters look the same as 2.0 (CU), 1.6 (CT) and WBX hydraulic lifters, and they can be swapped from case to case, but only used with the right cam.

Look at the end where the pushrod sits - do yours have a spring clip inside them with an internal piston? Remove the spring & the piston comes out to release a ball & spring.

What length are your pushrods? 272mm (hydraulic) or 282mm (solid)
