Noisy Lifters

Well, I myself once did that.
But Gee, I was thinking the 230* was a really nice street cam.I had a 249er and that was waaaaay too big for me. When I switched, I was serious; I went to a 223*fast-rate. I'd probably still be running that cam, If somebody woulda sent me a letter saying they were going to take the Zddp outta the oil. As it was,she dropped 2lobes right after an oil change. And then I got a lil greedy and moved up a size and a half to the 230* fast rate.For me that hit the spot.
I have to admit that the 223 was a bit stronger from idle to about 3000. But I solved that with a deeper starter gear. But the 230 is so much nicer on top, and the pull goes on forever, it seems like.
Whatever you decide, good luck.

BTW; 1/4 turn on a 24tpi stud is 10.5 thou or .0104inch. I heard Rusty likes to run em at Zero +/- .002, but I run .020, or 1/2 turn. She still goes 7200 and she stays quieter, longer. It's been several years since her last adjustment. But hold on, that's not saying much. That may only be 10,000 miles or likely even less.
