Default Re: Shimming Hydraulic Flat Tappet Lifters

Shimming the hyd lifter to .010 on my Buick 315/455 was worth 12 HP and carried the power out past the peak much better and the engine was happier. Spring pressure was 170/350. I opted to stay with the hyd lifter only because it was living nicely with my cam, if that wasn't the case I would be running a solid lifter.
