Re: 383 Fun...

My thoughts were on the seats receding too but on only one cylinder?...one valve stem (intake) does appear to sit a little higher than the others...it's a 1966 383 with the original 516 heads without the hardened seats, so if a couple new lifters don't fix it up I may try shims under the rocker shafts to reduce the preload. We shall see...

You're probably on the right track. I wonder how new lifters will work with an old cam? You know a lifter needs to be replaced exactly where it came from on a used cam so I'm just thinking you might have a cam failure with new lifters on that cylinder. Of course it really can't hurt much as you need to do something anyway. I wonder if the seats could be receded too?

A  "pumped up" lifter acts like a stuck valve. The lifter fluid is "locked" so the lifter won't give.

As opposed to a "collapsed" lifter: will not hold oil to properly open the valve. (Assuming correct oil pressure.)

Thanks,
