Hello all,
Last year I posted about some problems I was having with my 2.9 running poorly, then I posted about trying to convert it to solid lifters. I got some PM's as time went on asking if I had done the conversion.
Well, I've been holding out on you guys. I engineered a stupid-simple, dirt cheap do-it-yourself solid lifter conversion and it made a huge difference in the performance of my high-mile 2.9. I installed it last December and drove the truck half a year before I finally sold it, putting thousands of miles on my conversion.
I wrote everything up with pictures and details, including a video of what my truck did before the conversion.

Hope this helps guys
