Question adjusting hydraulic lifters

I adjusted my hydraulic lifters in my 454 BBC, and man what a difference! Smoother idle, more crisp accelaration, and can't hurt MPG. Have any of you adjusted your valves?

Re: adjusting hydraulic lifters

Just remember that you have to use a left handed crescent wrench when you adjust the drivers side!
