My recomedation is to change out your roller tappets with a new set at the start of each season or every 10k miles or so. Send them in to be rebuilt then you will have a new set for the next season. It's been my experience with these guys that the old sets ALLWAYS have something wrong or something I don't like. Easy to change out, not all THAT expensive when you think of the cost of your engine, and the peice of mind is priceless on this high wear item. I run Cranes. Have been for years. Anyone else use anything else that may be better? I'm open to suggestions here.
