was tune-up routine? now lifters



While this may have been true forty years ago, modern (and we can consider the '80's VW heads to be modern) hydraulic lifters are the equal of solids in any category you might want to choose.
  There are good reasons that no automaker puts solid lifters in their automobiles today.

If you like the sound of clattering lifters, you must love the graunch of self-machining transmissions and the snapping/clicking of wasted CV joints.

  The only reason to use a hydraulic head is because there was no choice, 
  it came that way, or the user is a wuss. Real men and women prefer solid 
  things.
