Sorry to shout, but this is the first step in getting BN1 #554 back on the
road. My new lifters (cam followers or tappets if you insist) arrived from
Denis Welch. So now I need to ask if anyone has a few (I need 3) spare
pushrods laying around that they might be willing to part with. The
requirement is that they must be the solid type with the 3/8" spherical end
and they need to be straight. The second objective is to find a reliable
source of engine oil still containing ZDDP. I checked the local NAPA store,
but the Valvoline VR1 they could order was rated as SL, SM. Still looking for
a source of "primitive" oil.
