  1. Ah awesome man. thanks for that. Just what I wanted to know. Got the old lifters here, you shouldnt be able to pull them apart or push them in easily? if I get some big vice grips i can just squeeze the solid ones with some force. and a couple will come apart and can squeeze them with your hands. Also, while your here replying. How much are lifters? and are they freely available in NZ? also might as well price cam and rocker arms
  2. This time around have had it running about half an hour so far? and no easing up on the tick. Last time did a couple hundred km and nothing. How could I check the gasket? Should have left the old lifters bled haha instead I left them in kero to clean out There any way to manually bleed these lifters?
  3. I changed the cam, This one isnt worn, unless its worn where the cam mounts to the head. Rocker arms are slightly worn. like half a mm maybe and lifters have been cleaned in kero for a couple days before being soaked in oil for another day then installed
  4. Hey guys, Bit of a long story.... car was mint (E36 M40B18) didnt tick much at all. then driving to auckland. Half way timing belt stripped all the teeth, So got it home. Found another head which was a bit gunky, Cleaned it up. Threw it on. Ran sweet but had a Horrific Tick. So took the cam and liters out (As Cam was quite worn) and swapped lifters with my old ones. Put it together. Def, Quieter but still loud. too loud for my liking haha. What more can be done? Here is a video so show you the noise. http://youtu.be/QRALQ_FJQfU Cheers for any help and tips guys
