Anybody out there had any experience with using hydraulic valve lifters (like those from Weber Camshafts) in a 914 2.0L four? This seems to me to be a good way to eliminate the hassle of manual valve adjustments on 914 four cylinder engines. All and any info greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This seems to me to be a good way to eliminate the hassle of manual valve adjustments on 914 four cylinder engines. All and any info greatly appreciated. Thanks. I had hydraulic WebCam (#91 grind) with hydraulic lifters. It reduces but does not eliminate adjusting valve lash. I had one lifter that took 5 minutes to pump and get quiet. There is a different set of issues with hydraulic versus non-hydraulic. Others will chime in I am sure. I think Jake Raby quit offering hydraulic as an option years ago... |
