Photo of the cam bucket please

[928s]

Hi guys, could somebody post a photo of a cam follower for the V8 Lexus motor, I would like to see how the shimming system works. I need to convert my engine over to solid lifters and thought this system might be a good starting point. How big are the lifters in diameter? How much in grams do they weigh? My engine is a Porsche 5 liter V8 and has 32 valves, I plan on a 7500 rpm limit and the hydraulic bucket with the centre cut out weighs 42 grams, the diameter is 35 mm. The cams will have a max lift of 10.75 mm.

Thanks for your help.

Greg

The picture in that link is for 2jz, the 1 and 3 uz motors are identical to the 2jz as for as valve actuation goes.

Thanks for the pic and its great it shows how it works in conjuction with the other parts of the valvetrain. What is the diameter of the valve lifter? The diameter of the lifter for the V8 engine that is.

Thanks Greg
