I have purchased a Intense Stage I Cam, Intense 1.6 Roller Rockers, Intense Pushrods, Comp Cam Valvesprings and retainers to install in my Camaro. Will the stock lifter work with this set up? I want to avoid pulling the heads.

I believe the stock lifters will work as long as you don't rev higher than ~6000 rpm.1998 M5 3.8 Mystic Teal Camaro<br />Flowmaster exhaust, Pacesetter headers, 3\" cat, 3\" S-pipe, whisper lid, ram air, Spec Stage 1 clutch, Poly Trans mount, Walbro 255LPH.

you don't need to remove the heads to change the lifers anyway.\'97 Firebird 3.8 ... 1/4 mile = 12.50 (minutes)Comment

Stock lifters aren't bad at all. New ones are good just so you know that there's nothing wrong with them, but you'll be fine with the stockers. I'm actually back on my stock lifters now while trying to find a tick.
Like ma4life said, if you do want to install new ones, you don't have to remove the heads.Matt

I agree with the rest of the replies, and also agree that the heads can stay on to do the lifters. The intakes both have to come off. You will need to use compressed air in the cylinders while you change out the valve springs, etc.1997 Chevrolet Camaro v6 - 13.8@104MPH

At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...02-07-2020, 10:30 PM
