The lifters finally arrived at the cam grinder shop on Monday (Jan 27), so I'm waiting for a call
on progress. Meanwhile I've pulled the heads and they are at a local machine shop getting
cleaned up. They'll check flatness and mill if needed. I sent the bare heads only and lapped all
of the valves before dropping them off. Progress !
