Then my numbers are good.

google “Mack emedia” ...... go to “service information”. The manual is in there, free. Publication 5-106. 

any chance you could call me and help me find that manual ? 

sorry   working on a 98 e7 400 eup engine according to mack.. 

What about a place to locate a book or pdf on computer to get specs for putting cam back in and adjusting the valves clearance ?

The only way to replace a lifter on an etech engine is to remove the camshaft. The lifters will have to be supported by magnetic tipped rods slightly longer than the pushtubes. There is a special tool that clips onto the rear of the cam to aid in removal. The cam weighs about 90 lbs with the gear.

Are you replacing the lifter due to damage? Better take a good look at the cam lobe, it could be damaged as well.

do you know the name of the magnetic rods to support lifters,  also the name of the tool that clips on to the rear of the cam ?
