I didn't think the comp R's required adjustable lifters.

got that stuff in my 387. Works fine, though a little loud. The comp-R's dont like much preload.

Ran comp-R's for 2 years with non adjustible lifters, ran just fine. Everybody says they dont like much preload, but they ran just fine with 0.100", 0.50" and almost none. <shrug>

I was under the impression that the Comp "R's" and the regular comp lifter didn't like much pre-load, like .010", doesn't Comp recomending .010"? I was thinking that I am running to much pre-load (at least .050) with my setup and may be the cause of my hot/cold start up issues. Anyone have any facts about it being ok to run lot's of pre-load other than people just not having any problems doing it with there setup?? I'm just curious!
