Figure 125
– Fitting Oil Pickup Tube
Fit solid lifters to the lifter bores in the case, lubricating each lifter stem and holding each lifter in place
with a small amount of grease under the head. The camshaft will hold the solid lifters in one half of the
case in place during fitting. Once the case is joined it is impossible to fit or remove solid lifters.
Lubricate the base of the lifters and the cam lobes using moly grease or cam honey. This prevents
damage during initial starting of the engine.
Hydraulic lifters will be fitted later in the final assembly process as they can be fitted from outside the
case.

– Checking Crankshaft End Float, Installing Solid Lifters
Offer one half of the crankcase up to the crankshaft.
Fit a dial gauge on a magnetic base to the top of the
crankshaft and measure the end float of the
crankcase half on the crankshaft by moving the
crankcase half up and down by hand. End float must
be within the limits of Table 12
– 0.25mm is typical.
Record the value (alternatively feeler gauges may be
used). Remove the case from the crankshaft and set
aside until final assembly. Fit the oil pickup tube O
ring to the crankcase, then fit the oil pickup tube from
the front of the case. The oil strainer housing is then
Loctited to the pickup tube using Loctite 620. Note
that the strainer must face forwards / down as
shown.
