Recommended Lifter Installation:

1. Inspect the lifters for any signs of damage to the lifter body or wheel.

2. Verify the rollers spin without any binding.

3. Wipe down the lifter body with a lint free rag.  

4. Coat the outside of the lifter with engine oil (not recommended to soak)

5. Debris entering a lifter is the main cause of failure.  Clean the top end of the engine to ensure no foreign debris can enter the lifters upon startup.

6. Inspect the Rocker Arms, Pushrods Ends, and Valve Tips for excessive wear.  Replace as necessary.

7. Install lifters and set the lifter preload to the recommended specifications.

8.  Change oil/filter after 50 miles to remove any debris that may have been missed during assembly.
