I just recently changed my lifters and pushrods because if what I thought was a lifter going bad. Results are the same..... Ticking from the valve cover.
How long should it take for stock LT1 lifters to bleed down to a point the can be somewhat compressed by hand? Mine have been sitting for 2 days and are still rock hard.
Replacement lifters were LS7 lifters. I bought them from a local engine building company here in DFW. I didn't know they were LS7 till I got the old ones out and noticed the diff. Lil Internet surfing confirmed my thoughts.
In the end I still have a noticeable tick and I'm out $150 for lifters and pushrods.
