Rather than certain lifters vs certain cams, I'll put my money on the fact that the lifters where not machined properly when the engine was assembled.

Nah I reckon he means the "hot box" bolts. Where the mani's bolt together.
Been "heat treated" 100's of thousands of times and you'll never easily get all 3 out.
Honestly mate, if it needs a re-build I wouldn't bother. Money for re-build kit would be better spent put towards a 32/32 weber or better. :D
My mate spent $200 getting that carby re-built, only to replace it with dual sidies not long after.
If you want even better than the permaseal ones then next step up in Genuine Toyota gaskets.
Around $35-35 but have pressed steel re-inforcing around all the port holes, and are basically re-usable. :P
Get yourself a Permaseal EM30. :P
Available through Bursons, listed in the Lukey parts catelogue as "K series extractor gaskets". RRP is around $12 which actually makes them cheaper than the ACL/Ezy fit ones!!!! :cool:
