NPI lash adjusters and followers on PI head

texas96gt · December 11th, 2008, 11:49 PM

I found some PI heads but they do not have the followers or lash adjusters. Can I use the ones from my non pi heads? I have heard you can't reuse lifters because they are worn by the old cams, is this the same for lash adjusters?

as others have stated, as long as there in good condition, yes, you can re-use them...that statement about not using them because they are "worn by the old cam" is talking about OHV engines, Not OHC engines....
