My 120R had a loud tick with Wood lifters. I changed to Fueling and it wasn't nearly as loud. I did change to 0.030" offset rocker supports at the same time also.

i have been planning on changing from woods to s@s lifters, i know scott likes them, i just hate to shell out $250.00 if it dont help

thats why i wanted to try to get the video on here

i also tried to send to scott before trying to post but it was too large

Why not open a free account with Box,net and post it there. Then post the link here. Then we can all hear it and maybe somebody has heard it before.

rbabos
thanks for the reply, i have read alot of you comments and value your opinion

i did manage to get a copy of the video emailed to scott (i hope)
the post from prodrag got me thinking and i want to be courtious on the site so i am going to let scott hear it first and get his blessing before trying to post again

scott is a standup guy and did me a great job , has been helpfull and very proffesional, i just got exited that i finally got a video camera and thought i had a chance to finally let others hear and get some opinions

as soon as i hear from scott i will try to re-post, i will go to box.net and get the account set up


thanks again

Saw the E-mail video, but mighty hard to diagnose.
This engine did have a noise, prior to our machine work, and your installation?
I do know, in another recent post, that FLTRI, changed to an OE cam plate and it was a MUCH quieter operation. :up:

scott you are correct ,it was noisy prior to the build,

i must say i beleive the noise is a componant or possibly something i have done that may be able to be done better, i have 100% confidence and faith in your work, infact you have been probably the best person i have dealt with on something like this

i did send a link to a better sounding file on e mail

i will try to search for FLTRI's post
