Hydraulic Lifter Pre-Load
Been away from the 'gearhead' stuff awhile and the memory cells are a bit depleted.
I'm re-assembling the upper-end of a SB Chevy that's w/ a hydraulic cam.
What's the proper pre-load for the rocker / lifter nuts?
With each lifter on a cam lobe base, after the push rod was slightly snug - I went an additional half-turn w/ the rachet.
Am I remembering this correctly for the initial set before I can adjust it while running?Take Care,
Steve
Well I've sure gotten old too so don't worry about it! I've had two bypass surgeries, new knees, fought prostate, cancer and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine,...
