So rather than go through however many intake removals replacing cartridges Ive elected to take it as a loss and shelve the units for some Johnson's. What I should have used from the start as it's been my go to lifters for many years. That's what I get for leaving my comfort zone lol
Did you clean them before installing? I’m going to point out to my engine guys to please do that.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
