ORIGINAL: stanguy306

Hey guys, ok I found out what the problem was at least I think....I'm running linked hydro lifters but turns out you cant run these on roller blocks the oil galley's are in different spots....so I'm going to convert back to the original dog bone set up....I hope thats it....so basically my lifters werent getting oil since the lifter set up I was using is for a flat-tappet to hydro convertion....heads half to come off now.....F*** S*** D*** LOL all over again.....more foul language....haha[/align]

your scaring me, how did you run into them lifters? and why do the heads have to come back off?

Id drain the coolant, from the lower radiator hose to waterpump, loosen em and that might give you enough play.

Was this foul play or an error?, also check the cam lobes, make sure you didnt ruin the camshaft.

here how it started I didnt want to re-use my orig. lifters because they had 250k on them....so through the advise of a friend I got this linked lifter set up....I wish I would have done more research about them but??

About removing the heads I used gasket clench when I put them on so I would need to totally remove them to clean off the residue and possibly replace the gasket....sux but I think I'm guna trailer the car by a shop to ensure thats the issue I would hate to do the work for no reason....ya know?
