The hydraulic lifter game is all new to me after years of solid lifter super stock racing. Forgive me you guys I have already ask, but I just have to put it out there for the crowd..... I understand the "spin the push rod and stop when the slack is out" no preload just stop---that is "0" lash. I also understand that "0" lash is where I want to be BUT LET ME ASK THIS......I have 1/2 turn from first feeling resistence to stopping the push rod completely from spinning. The question is..... do you stop at first sign of resistence, medium resistence or maximum resistence before stopping the push rod completely ??? Just curious....how does this "spin resistence" effect performance ??? Where do you want to be in the setting, light, medium or heavy resistence ???
