Re: Lifter clacking

I had a clack one time that I couldn't find and it was a hammered valve keeper about to let loose. I also had a rocker arm that a pushrod went through.

For oil i use diesel oil. Delvac is usually under $15 a gallon. Its not as good as the high end stuff but its cheap and readily available. Not to mention I have diesels also. Been working in my solid cam 400sb for atleast 5 years now. Tons of 7-8k rpm shifts and lots of idle time in traffic also.
