Another in our continuing Better Engine Building series providing valuable tips for your next engine build. This time we show you how to avoid lifter and camshaft failures by checking for proper lifter bore clearance. This is definitely more critical with flat-tappet lifters, but it's also a must-check for roller lifters as well. Fortunately, the process is relatively straightforward and only requires a couple of specialized tools. Here are links to some of the components and tools I used in this video: Erson Cams & World Products: http://www.pbm-erson.com 0.7 to 6.0 Inch Dial Bore Gauge: https://amzn.to/3eaj9dr Zero to 1.0 Inch Micrometer: https://amzn.to/3htiAO5 Cast Iron Micrometer Stans: https://amzn.to/2YDNdI4 (Note that Horsepower Monster may receive a percentage from products purchased through these links, so thanks in advance for helping out the channel!)
