Thanks for the information. I'll look up Seafoam on the net. The lifter problems I've experienced were all apparently the result of the oil pump sucking air and forming foam. That was on a couple of 55 V8's in the fifties. My most recent acquisition is also a 55. It had clicking valves, too. Rep[laced the mains and the oil pump with one rebuilt by Fred Aller. Haven't been able to drive it far enough so far to determine if the problem is solved. Bernardi

Let's hope that something to replace zinc pops up real quick. An MGB engine rebuilder on the west coast has published a couple of articles in an MG club paper telling of numerous cases of cam failure in less than 2000 miles.
What is Seafoam? Modern STP? Bernardi
