Got at least one lifter that's going bad, it was just tapping for a few seconds occasionally on start up but now when idling it seems to come and go as it please's regardless of engine temps. It always shuts up within seconds if I keep the rev's above 3K so I'm sure it's a lifter as opposed to anything else in the valve train.
Anyway I remember reading about there being two different variants of the OE lifter, one lighter than the other, which one's are considered the better option and where's the best place to source them?
If it was a customers car I'd just order them from my local factors or TPS depending on their budget but as it's my own car and I need 20 of them I want the best quality and price. Figured if I'm going to do one I may as well change the lot, they've done a 100K miles and are 20 years old
