Hydraulic or mechanical?
When my lady really wants to get me in the mood, she rubs a little diesel behind her ears.

I believe it is a hydraulic since the car it came from had hydraulic lifters. Is there something on the block that I could double check just to make sure??

yes look at the deck and see if there's an oil return hole on the front side between cyls. one and two. Hydraulics have the return hole mechanicals don't.
Look, if corn and kudzu fall in love and have a baby in a lab under the supervision of scientists working in my employ, WHO AM I TO STOP THAT other than the CEO responsible for stopping it???

would someone happen to have a picture of one? I checked this block and there is holes but I want to make sure I am looking at the right thing. I don't want to sell someone the wrong block.
