is it posible to run bd16s on hydrolich lifters

 

Not sure if its possible, but certainly doesnt sound very smart.

 

no its not very smart
9400 revs and bang out drop the valves

 

Indeed, and its not just the 9000rpm+ to worry about of course, its also some pretty montrous valve acceleration rates on top of that so the lifters are worked even harder than the rpm implies on its own.

If it worked at all, it wouldnt work for long!

 

it wasnt intended to work for long
it was a case of i wana drive my car on track and cudnt wait for the solids from sweden
so i went out there in wet lite the rear wheeels up at 130 and the rest is history
no more 3door

 

Why is it that the hydraulick lifters are so bad?
Isent that AFTER 8000rpm?
The lifters doesent care about the lift and duration on the cam??

 

If you aren't going to rev much over 8k very often and its really a road engine then I can't see why you can't stay on hydraulics as Cossiemanden says. BUT I would ask someone much more technical than me!

One advantage I found of being on mechanical lifters was that when I accidently selected 2nd gear instead of 4th gear and the engine saw well over 10k revs briefly the engine got away undamaged. if it was on hydraulic lifters I am pretty sure I would have bent a few valves...

Another plus is the solid lifters sound the TITS when you reving it

 

My Rev Limit is 8200 on hydraulics - thats about the max.

CAM is a special NMS version

 

I love the spelling of Hydraulic!! Keep it up!
