I use the right stuff gasket maker to seal up the valley trays, it more flexible than RTV, and does not find its way to the oil pickup as much.

John wanted me to measure the lifters, when measuring the whole thing i get 2.953 lowest and 2.965 highest.
When just measuring the body, they are 2.852-2.853 measured the best i could.
Couple pics of the marks on the bodies, never saw lifters before in a motor so i dont know if this is normal or not.
Jay, everything is smooth except for those lines, cant find any damage that i can see on the tie bars...........just nervous using this stuff again, one way or the other im gonna keep thinking something is gonna go wrong, but then again seems like my new stuff is bad most of the time also.
I really appreciate you guys hanging in there with me.
I havent heard anything from Tim at Bullet cams............would any of you guys make some changes to this cam one way or the other.
I dont know if i can send these to Johnsons and have them look at them, they are two + years old.......i will check into that.
