If you go over to the Rennlist.com website and look under the 996 Forum, there is an interesting discussion under last July by Schnell Gelb covering his experiences with hydraulic lifters.
I think he stripped the old frozen lifters only to find clean oil and no debris so then submerged the lifters in heated new oil - but maybe my memory is playing tricks again.....
