Since it appears to be a major challenge to adjust valves do most people go with hydraulic lifters when it comes to rebuilding an engine ? Its my understanding hyd. cams and lifters suffer with performance in these engines.
Is there an easy way to determine if an engine has hyd. lifters besides pulling a rocker arm, push rod, and then pulling a lifter out ? |
