Convert hydraulic lifters to solid lifters.

[Barron]

Has anyone ever done this on a F4R engine, if so how was it done and whats the reliability like?

i have heard of machining a bar instead of the hydro mech inside, but thats all i know lol

Ive heard the same, silly money.

do you know how much solids cost!

i have no idea! or no idea who supplys them lol

from memory it'll cost you about the same as a decent 182

buying proper solid lifters is expensive aye.

but converting them isnt as costly from what ive heard.
