Well, I have an engine from a 74 SEL that has non-hydraulic lifters in the valve train assembly, and the cam shaft APPEARS smooth when I peer into the valve cover, I'll know more tonight. I suppose this is one of those jobs where I might as well put a timing chain in as well? I can't afford any more extended downtime. If I had all the parts ready and had a list or steps I could probably knock it out in a day and a half...
