So I know this has been brought up many times but im trying to understand the ceramic lifters in the mack aset. Truck started ticking and puffing out the air cleaner. Pulled valve cover and one rocker is way out of adjustment and nothing in the overhead looks out of place. I assume I have a broken lifter and would like to know the next plan of attack. I plan to pull oil pan and check for pieces but I am unsure of the actual procedure to replace lifters in this engine. I also realize cam is likely damaged as well. I've combed the forums and have read the upgrades done to these engines and am willing to go that route as well. Manifolds, possibly cam with no extra bump and turbo but just need a direction to go in. Thanks for any info. Justin
