BlownFiveLiter have car, will race....wait, it doesn't run 15 Year Member Nov 29, 1999 3,133 18 108 Chicagoland Feb 19, 2007 #4 Feb 19, 2007 #4 I've heard debate on this over the years. I didn't soak mine since they get pumped up by oil when you prime the engine anyway. All I did was give them a nice coating and drop them into the bores.

Whether full or empty ... zero lash is zero lash or Preload ... if you prefer Grady
