Hows this for a weak stomach and 20 minutes of cam/lifter breakin (torture). As I've said before use the Camshaft manufacturers recommended lifters. 3 camshafts later (2 web 86C cams, 1 CB/Eagle cam) 2 sets of lightened German reground lifters, 1 set of pat downs reground scat lifters,, 1 Shadek oil pump and due to the crud in the oil (chunks of lifters etc) my lifter bores worn severely I had the sleeves rebushed with brass/silicon sleeves. Oh the love of ACVW's.
Yes my 65 / 2332 is back on the road!!!
Check out the lifter on the far right. The head of the lifter is non existant.
Those are OE german VW lightened lifters (2nd set of lifters and 86C - ES12 camblank)
Oops correction ]]] they were....
After all this crap happened and when I was down I opened up my float bowls, added weber 3mm ball/seats and put Art Thraens CNC vents in. Yes gas mileage sucks.
