You may also have an exhaust manifold leak. Will sound just like a lifter. You ask how I know,,,several hours total trying to locate the lifter and adjusting rockers only to hear my son come in and say, Dad, sound like you might have a header leak. All you can say is,,oh yea, I know,,working on rockers right now,,get to that later. :muhaha: :whistle:
