Hydraulic lifter adjustment

Post by Danzley0 » Fri Jul 07, 2017 6:44 pm

Before the rocker cover comes off i am looking for info on how to adjust the lifters/tappets
Would they be shims or threaded for adjustment?
Shims is a few hours work whereas apparently another kind of adjustment will only be a half hour job?
Any help appreciated
Cheers guys
