hi,  lifter noise isnt relly that hard to tell, its more of a sharp .tick noise, and a bearing is more of a dull knocking type noise.

IMO lifter noise can be hard to distinguish from big end bearing noise. You'll know when the bearing lets go, but the noise during the lead up can be very similar!
 
Bleeding SR lifters is not hard, just gotta pull the cams out, remove each lifter one by one, poke a nail in the hole and dunk 'em in oil, pump them a few times, pull the nail out while they're submerged and they come good.

Speaking of tick noises, does the SR20 engine make the lifter racket that my RB30 makes just after a cold start-up first thing especially now the mornings here are a tad cooler. I've stuck Nulon in it as the Skyline/VL ppl both told me to do which has made a bit of a difference but every other day makes a hell of a noise on the first start.
 
regards
Terry

Lucky man.. Very lucky.
Does the engine make a tick noise at all?
