Sweet! Any other feedback? Did the cam doc analysis help?
I just spent as much on a set of solid lifters as I did on the used cylinder head. Turns out it was the old style HLAs (no)\caveat emptor
Cylinder head was decked, seats radiused, 3 angle valve job, ports match, etc. (this process began back in august!)
I went all over creation to find these SOLID LIFTERS!
I could pay $11 each new from MSMS. I got em for $125 with shims off of an '01 Miata head.
Researched aftermarket options to little avail. Crossovers' kit requires the use of their custom supertech springs & ret.
CS sed they use OEM buckets in their 400hp Protege. They also mentioned that the part number for the Miata buckets was superceded by an FS part number replacement (I think, iirc)
Now they can FINALLY complete the setup of the cams in there and check my lash.
Install will run a days labor plus an extra day for installing all my other goodies (cabpatch)
