Reply to "Suggestions needed for adjusting hydraulic roller lifters"

Chris checked the viscosity of all those oils at several temps. Probably a full week of work if he did it all himself. I copied his list for 100 degree C oil, deleted everything above 15 centistokes (he says too thick to flow well with hydraulics so they rattle) and less than 7 centistokes (IMHO too thin for consistent heavy loads in a street engine's main & rod bearings). The remainder makes up a list of possibles I'll look for on sale & further refine the list for my Rhodes lifters.
