I am assembling a 1911 motor with hydraulic lifters, I really don't want to debate the use of them, I am giving them a try no matter what. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
My question is, should I prime the lifters or not, I have heard that you should soak them in oil, then pump them in oil, then I read that you should put them in dry...not sure what to do. Also, the push rods are different, they look suspiciously like Type I chromoly push rods. I bought this motor in a partially assembled state, tore it all down and started from scratch. Any other tips for hydros? |
