I can't say exactly when it occurred, but a few years ago there were a number of cam-lifter failures which I believe included Johnson lifters and Web cams. I think this prompted Jake Raby to begin a series of lifter/cam tests to try to figure out the problem. That is when the only safe solution seemed to be ceramic lifters $$$. I would do a bit of checking to make sure the lifters you have are okay and compatible with the cam you plan to use.
I have a set of lifters, which I assume are Johnson, from Web Cam, along with a cam, that I bought in around 94-95 for a project. I assume they are okay as they were well before the crisis took place, but I wonder. |
