Title: Old cam, new lifters.... Post by: Jonny Grigg on March 31, 2014, 21:44:31 pm May sound like a dumb question, but I have never found the need to ask before.
I am changing my lifters (Scat lubealobe to CB ultralight) and ideally I don't want to change the cam unless I need to. Generally the word on the web is that new lifters = new cam, but is this the case? Some people whose opinion I respect and value have told me it is ok to run new lifters with a used cam provided I do a careful cam burn again- however has anyone got any practical experience of this, either good or bad? The worst thing will be to have to strip this motor again as soon as I have rebuilt it..... Thanks, Jonny. Title: Re: Old cam, new lifters....
