All,
i have the top end off my 73 1.7 and im going to the 1.9 slip fit from Auto Atlanta and i was wondering about the different lifter options. the ones i have look really good without any visual damage. But im a little worried about how "springy" they are. i took a push rod and just pressed down a few of the lifters and was wondering if this is something i should address while things are apart. Should i buy new stock lifters? What is a "solid" lifter? (sounds dangerous) not sure what a hydraulic lifter is...any info is very helpful. this is my first go round with a 4cylinder 914 motor. thanks!! Steve |
