I finally decided to buy the modified tappet that Denis Welch sells. (cost with shipping $110) These are the same after market types that the usual suspects sell, but Welch machines a flat groove on two sides to aid oil drainage back to the pan. With shipping by Royal Mail (the cheapest) I bought them on May 5th. They are still in transit with no scheduled delivery date according to the United States Post Office. For some odd reason they sat at the airport in the UK for almost a week before departing for the States. Once here (Miami, FL) they sat there for several more days before entering the USPS system. I purposely avoided the alternative offered by DW (UPS). I have been hearing from several sources UPS is having problems and to avoid them. Maybe I should have sprung for the UPS charges, even though they were substantially more. Not sure who is at fault here; me, Welch or the Royal Mail. Just a note of caution if you are thinking of buying anything from a UK supplier through the Royal Mail.</span></p></div><div><p class="yiv0447417737MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:New serif;">Mike MacLean</span></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
