About to do my cam swap on my 6.0 LQ4 thats been on my engine stand for a couple months. Only stock valvetrain will be lifters and rockers. My question is that instead of using 3/8 dowle rods or pen magnets to hold the lifters up will it hurt if i flip the engine on the stand after i get the lifters in their holding trays? The heads will still be on the engine while im doing the swap by the way. Thanks

 

Anybody? 27 veiws and nobody knows...

 

you should be fine as long as the lifters are in there trays

 

I'd say read through this thread: https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...d.php?t=443661

 

Thanks for trying to help but that didnt answer my question. I already know those techniques and i commented on that thread last week. I just want to know if it will hurt to flip the engine upside down on the engine stand after i have the lifters in their trays for cheap insurance so i dont have to pull the head if a one falls.

 

OK ,sorry I didn't catch what you were really asking.

 

Yes you will be fine. Gravity will be on your side that way. I have done it on a few installs.
