Grimmy 312 Posted November 28, 2018 The 170Pursuit engine had solid lifters im pretty sure . I would set them around 10/12 thousands being an iron head if you can't find specs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thom 6,650 Posted November 29, 2018 The 170Pursuit engine had solid lifters im pretty sure . I would set them around 10/12 thousands being an iron head if you can't find specs That's exactly what I did when my xp still had a 170, generally the 170s had a solid cam and the 200s were hydraulic but I have seen solid and hydraulic in both engines Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
