Streets, I picked the engine up from from a wrecking yard, so I have never seen it running. But on the other hand the place that I bought it from tested it and they noted it had some lifter noise. I just got it back from the machine shop and am pretty happy with the job they did, new cam bearings and freeze plugs, bored 30 over. Just wondering if this is something I NEED to do?

And thats what I basically did, I called and visited many machine shops and asked alot questions, about thier procceses and I tried to get as many referals from friends as I could. I just want to do it right the first time.
