    noisy lifters- time to replace!

    Good morning again!
    Tomorrow I'm changing all the lifters in my 4.6 RRC. I am changing them all cos I really do not want to change 2 and then put it all back together and realise I missing one.
    Has anyone got any handy hints????

    (knowledge is power... well stops me crying in the corner)
    Cheers NAT

    Any cam? Just the standard one? I think is has a standard ((non programable) I think)
    Any handy hints.
    I'm all for putting a bigger cam (more power) in but not sure the point with a normal ECU. OR can anyone recommend a "chip" and cam combo.

    Cheers NAT

    I forgot to mention that the bottom end is a 4.6 out of a 1997, and the top end is a 3.9. I've been told this has more comp. Can anyone let me know!
    Cheers NAT

    Put a standard cam back in. Make sure you follow the correct procedure for running a flat tappet cam in or you will destroy it in a very short time.

    also check the alloy rockers, ive seen them flogged out.
    the pushrods hammers into them, usually from clogged oil galleries
