To recondition the lifters, I pumped all of the original oil out of them, washed them thoroughly, and then reoiled them. If you flip the lifter over, you will see where it contacts the valve stem; this is actually a small pump. Using the magnetic pickup tool, you can slide this pump up and down and all of the oil will be dispelled. Once the oil is out, fill the lifter with degreaser and then rinse with water. To ensure the lifter is flawlessly clean, repeat with mineral spirits and then pump full of new oil.

Slide each lifter into it's bore and then install the camshaft. Wash all cam lobes and bearing surfaces with lacquer thinner, coat with camshaft assembly lube and install the bearing caps. NOTE: the black bolt has an oil passage milled into it. This black bolt must be installed on the inner side of the bearing cap. Ensure that the timing marks are aligned and torque each cap, in stages, to 11 ft-lbs.
