The factory offered .030" oversize lifters. Make sure you measure the lifter bores and the lifter diameters.

Those metal shavings had to go somewhere.




I just went through the same type of thing with a MP 509 cam and lifters. #8 intake lifter stuck and wiped the cam lobe.

When I dropped oil pan it looked like metal flake paint in there. I had to do a complete teardown, wash and rinse. I put all new main and rod bearings in, got new cam etc, almost together. Maybe fire tomorrow or sunday....Good luck on your motor.

I decided to go with a completely new cam. Bought the Lunati VooDoo cam and lifter kit #60304.

Hopefully everything will go ok this time. If not I'm going roller.
