I'm seriously considering converting my Mi16 to solid lifters to negate the oil surge. Just wondering if anyone on here has done it, and would like to pass on their experiences?
This will be for a occasional road/mostly track car. Yes, I could go GTi6 head but I can't help thinking it would diminish the '1.9 Mi feel'. It's still an idea, but I'm looking at converting the hydraulic lifters and making custom shims (I have a friendly, skilled machinist to hand and stock of silver steel). Potentially stage 2 solid grinds maybe?
Advice/tips welcome!
