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.

I thought they sounded like a good idea when I had a motor built 15 or so years ago. They were great on the street when i was babying my motor. Never had to take the valve covers off. They would always eventually pump up for me, though at one point after sitting for 6 months I had to change to a really light weight oil to get them to do so.
Then i started auto crossing and learned to hate them real fast. I now have a new motor and 2.0 with hydros just sitting on my garage floor. |
