So, in 2 other threads I've got great advise on a valve ticking noise I was having and how to pull the head from my motor. While its off I want to replace all the lifters also, because I'm not sure if they were part of the valve ticking noise problem since its non-adjustable rocker arms.
Questions:
- Do I need to do anything special to the lifters or inside the block before installing them? Other than soak them in oil so they fill up.
-Anything else recommended to do while the head is off and engine is torn down? Doing a complete valve job, paint job, port divider in exhaust port, getting the header ceramic coated. Also just did a carb rebuild recently, so its fresh too.
- Other than removing all the old gasket material and carbon build up from the block/pistons. Any other prep needed before reinstalling the head, after lifters are done obviously.
Sorry for starting a new thread but the others were not getting much activity.
Thanks again for all the help!
