As I get closer to starting my 100 engine I have yet to replace the
modified Denis Welch tappets like a list member suggested I do. I got
nervous, so I ordered a set of NOS tappets from Ahead4Healeys to swap with
the installed Welch tappets recently. Now, searching the archives, I find
someone had problems with NOS lifters after 6000 miles. Ruined a cam and
the lifters. So, what am I supposed to do now? Should I just buy
aftermarket tappets? Are the aftermarket tappets hardened correctly? Why
wouldn't the NOS tappets be hardened right? I don't want to replace the
cam after I get this thing running.
