I pulled a bonehead stunt, tore my engine that I just bought down and was really getting some stuff done, so I thought got in a hurry and flipped the motor over on the stand to pull the pan, and heard thunk thunk was like what the heck forgot to pull the lifters now I have a used cam and I have a pile of lifters that I have no idea which lifter bore they came out of. Any advice on putting them back in with minimal risk of flattening the cam ? Or should I just pitch it ? I really do want to reuse it as its a solid lift crane from way back and really ran and sounded mean. thanks for any help in advance and yes I know haste makes waste

I think it's time for a new set of Lifters. The Cam should ok.

IMO - I never kept track of which lifter bore I pulled my Crane hi-int lifters.

It might make a difference on some old high mile junk motor. Just think about it. The lifter is rotating. it is polished smooth.

thanks for the input guys did keep the cam for another car but I went and bought another comp cams 305 h magnum cam as the car is man brakes and vaccum is of no concern. I have run this particular cam before and really liked the performance cya at the track mike
