'68 318 to carbed Magnum 5.2: Check my checklist
Returned the one offending new lifter, and got a replacement. Pumped up all the lifters, installed the pushrods/rockers, and checked the hydraulic pressure against each rocker - no give on any of them.
After installing the valvettrain, I pressurized the system again to check for oil at all rockers. Results A-OK.
Here's where I am at the end of today. Decided not to rush it and to get a new pair of intake gaskets tomorrow. These are completely oil soaked.
