Something of interest came about last night worth reporting. Those pesky hydraulic rollers that failed. For those that know the cam follower has a roller that runs around the cam lobe and his an internal needle bearing assembly. When they fail the needle collapse, go everywhere cause damage etc etc.
Well something new....now you can get these cam followers with rollers that no longer have the needle bearings and instead have a bush. Which means should you find some excessive play when doing a valve lash (issue) you can actually pull the manifold and follower, replace the bush in the existing follower and happy days!!!
Best thing since sliced bread. They will be going in my engine for sure!
