Re: New cams
Lee, can you repost the spec's on the cams? It appears the original thread has been deleted and I don't have them.
Also, rumor has it I will need new lifters. What do I need for lifters? |

Re: New cams
Think the wife will be mad if the entire engine is broken down on the table and parts are soaking in the sink?

Re: New cams
Do I just need a new set of stock lifters? Or will I need something special?

Re: New cams
Sooooo, can I pre-order these if I find them on sale?
Are they all the same, or are there better sources/quality? |
