Blykins, Thanks , that makes sense, mine is a hydraulic flat tappet cam. I understand that you adjust the rocker to get 0 (zero lash), and then additonal 1/2 turn on hex (allen) rocker screw ( I presume this 1/2 turn (180 deg.) pre-loads the lifter??) and then you tighten the rocker lock nut to (20-25 ft-lbs). Is this right ?
Thanks
