Default Re: Original solid cam vs. full solid roller

Study up on the oil (+zinc) you're going to use -- flat tappets will run forever with the right oil ... check other forums here. The 143s do not need a set of gorilla springs to work. Excessive pressure, the wrong oil and improper break-in is what will wipe the lobes for sure.
