  • 3500 lifter questions

    is the plunger suposed to move around when you shake the lifter?

    is it supposed to be fairly hard to move the piston inside (lifter not pumped up and dry-no oil)?

    are my lifters screwed?

    can i use 3400 lifters (the dealer couldnt help here)

    They shouldn't rattle, and AFAIK the 3400 lifters are identical.

        the spring isn't that hard to push down but the piston shouldn't rattle around at all, it's a very tight fit.

        3400 lifters are identical to 3500 lifters. I've had both apart this weekend.
