I believe his setup is stud mount.... the pedestal mount get shimmed.I thought you were supposed to meet the required torque within the 1/4 to 1 turn, if not you needed shims?

This happened to me... sucks to get the car finished and 20 miles later collapse a lifter, consider it cheap insurance.There was never any slop or slack in the pushrods when I finished and I'm sure it would of been fine, but new valve springs on old lifters just didn't seem like the way to go anymore, more than once I was told the old lifters would be fine since it's roller, I didn't wanna find out once I put it all together that I had a lifter collapse.
I figure they'll be enough problems getting it running right without worrying about the damn lifters.This happened to me... sucks to get the car finished and 20 miles later collapse a lifter, consider it cheap insurance.
I'll be replacing it, you should of seen the face on the counter guys when I told them what I needed, Advanced Auto Parts and Auto Zone looked at me like.....It's for what ?? Carquest to their credit asked me if I knew what it looked like and helped me find it. They didn't have it but promised for first thing tomorrow morning.Kinda like the lifters, except even cheaper, I would also replace that PCV screen. Sure cant hurt to. And I dont see why that right stuff wouldnt work for the ends of the lower intake. I never used the cork changing mine out. Cant wait for you to wrap this up and see how you feel about the car!
I caught myself making them groaning sounds like Tim Allen just now. Man jewelry, wow ! Sam Adams is one of my fav beers too. Cheers mate !Purchased Trickflow top end on black Friday from Summit at a pretty decent discount and the supporting mods from LMR. Figured if it's gotta come off I might as well replace it.
Because didn't change oil first lol.Why does the oil pooling on your new shiny heads look like old dirty oil?
It was kind of a rhetorical questionBecause didn't change oil first lol.
