I'm putting together a used motor and am darn close to out of money. The cam 'looks' OK, but the lifters are slightly dished. Do I:
1. Put new lifters in it? 2. Regrind the old lifters (I have and extra set that are shot too... so I could pick and choose the best for the regrind) 3. Run 'em and try to forget about it (gonna be really, really hard to do) Opinions? -Aaron |

I'd need a 2.0 Cam. I do have some carbs I'm rebuilding... so if anyone has a good set that may be an option.
I do have a camera - will take some pics. Cam is still in the motor, but I can get some pics of the lifters tomorrow. As for the rest of the internals, really it's a guess. But the pistons look brand new!!! This appears to be an extremely low mileage rebuild - I guess it could have just been a top end job though... Thanks everyone for their help. -Aaron |
