I'm in the middle of my cam swap and I'm trying to install the new LS7 lifters, trickflow 1.150" pushrods, and 1.6 pro mag roller rockers. I went to TDC on cylinder 1 and tightened the rocker nut until the pushrod slack is gone. I then tried to go antother 1/2 turn. The nut will not tighten another 1/2 turn. It appears that [U]some[/U] of the lifter plungers are stuck. The plunger will not move down. Some of the lifters are ok and have plenty of give in the plunger while others dont seem to budge. How can I adjust the rockers for zero lash if I can't tightening them anymore? How can I unstick a stuck lifter?

I currently have them soaking in oil but that is not helping. I also pulled the clip off one of them to see why it is stuck. It is so tight I'm not sure if I can get the clip back on. Any ideas?

I really need to get this all back together by Monday.

Thanks



Got a pushrod checker?
