Changing lifters in S&S V111
« on: August 01, 2015, 09:26:44 PM »

I have over 50,000 miles on my S&S V111 motor. I ordered new lifters. The original ones still work fine but the manual says they should be changed at 25,000 miles. I was told these motor don't have adjustable pushrods and rear rocker boxes gotta come off.
Is this true? Has anyone changed lifters in a V111 motor? I just want to be sure I got all the gaskets and seals for the Rocker Boxes if needed, so down time is minimal. Thanks

I thought the 25,000 mile check and/or replace only applied to the OEM EVO'S.....???  :confused5: IDK

My 1988 Evo had 90,000 miles on the OE lifters, when it was stolen.

I think pre '92 EVO's were built better..... :)
