What do you mean bench test a lifter ?????????????????????????hottrodz said:what is the best way to bench test sbc lifters?
There are fixtures available (dealership-type tooling) that use a specific weight to measure how long it takes a lifter to bleed down.CNC BLOCKS N/E said:What do you mean bench test a lifter ?????????????????????????
I had an engine that had a lifter tick. Took them all apart, checked and cleaned them (Crane hydraulics), re-installed them. Still ticked. Pulled the cam and installed a solid grind. Figured "if they're gonna rattle, might as well be solid".johnsongrass1 said:Take it apart and clean it would probably suffice.
