FWIW, I just shoved a set of the ebay 60quid lifters in the Corset after GM wanted £720 for 16. They came in the same box as the GM ones and so far appear to be sweet. Not sure if the F7R chap is the same bloke selling or not, but I know I was dubious of fitting them to Fake when I first saw them

The Corset seemed an agreeable test bench
