Experience with burnishing lifter bores?

View attachment 1716281705

Does the tool require a slide hammer? I’ve had this one for a long while and always just tapped it from the valley (down) and unscrewed it to take it apart.
Luckily I’ve never met much resistance, and never had a lifter/cam failure. The last two engines I didn’t use it because I now like bushes bores and hyd. rollers.
So you should still use it in the bores while using solid or hyd rollers even though they are not spinning. It would keep everything nice and round. Kim
