the hydraulic-lifter 8v heads a simple bolt-on upgrade? Do they offer the

Anyone have other thoughts on the pros/cons of such heads? Experience??

Okay, SOME people will tell you that the hydraulic heads are better, I have
no idea why(unless they're too lazy to do a simple valve lash check every
15k..).
:) You should get a solid lifter JH if you have any choice at all. They're
more plentiful, probably a lot cheaper, higher revving, and on top of that
the ports flow a lot better!!
this means:
better gas mileage, less expensive to maintain, and the best MORE POWER!
want any more details? just ask!
