toodeep 1,758 Posted March 23 The followers (lifters) will show more wear (if any) than the camshaft. Are the head bolts tight, seem stripped, rounded heads. If your that far there should only be 4 bolts, 6mm thread with 8mm head for socket. If the heads are rounded it might be a pain to get them broke loose with the motor in the frame.
