To be brutally honest, his tool (lifter broach) is a simplistic tool, it only indicates or broaches the approximate diameter, the bore could have critical geometry errors and not show up with out more sophisticated measuring.






which was the situation in our case.
the bores could have been exactly the desired diameter, and it still would have chopped ANY fast rate .904 cam.
the bores werent located properly in the block, which was corrected when the lifter bores were sleeved.
