She's clatterin'. Is this one new enough for the hydraulics? I haven't had it apart yet....the builder says it's out of a 3/4 ton pick up. Engine no. FO105TF

It has hydraulic lifters, and it sounds like you might have to adjust the valve lash.

Yup, I figured they needed adjustment, just wanted to use the right procedure. Thanks!

yep they are hydraulic and just for future reference the lifters are the same as small block V8s in case you need to replace some of them

Hmm. I just happen to have some of those, brand new, laying around. Anyway, I adjusted them, they sound a whole lot better, but now I can hear the piston slap on deceleration.
