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.

Fully agree with all of the above. The PO of my car had them installed when he rebuilt the engine. They're not bad if you drive every day and I have no problem pulling to 5k rpm. But when the car sits for a while and you're waiting for them to pump up, you'll swear your engine is destroying itself. Two weeks ago I went as far as removing a lifter and rebuilding it because I thought there was something wrong with it. Turns out I just needed to wait another 15 minutes for the damn thing to pump up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
