The reason I wonder about it being a solid lifter is I felt it was too quiet to not be hydraulic. But from following the forum I get the feeling that hydraulic lifters in a side oiler are rare. This was Bill S's car, so I'm hoping he chimes in. I will pick up an automotive stethoscope. Funny I never picked one up before. It's probably been 35 years since my last valve lash adjustment.
