Lippy,
Mine are the Crower EnduraMax. They are bushed rather than having needle bearings.
I run through the lash at 1,000 to 1,500 miles for general maintenance, however they'd probably go much farther between adjustment.
I inspect and adjust at that frequency because of a short discussion I had with Blykins, on another site. He had mentioned cam "lobe intensity" and I didn't know what the heck that meant. After he explained the term, it was evident my cam has a numeric lobe intensity that he considers to be more harsh on the springs. Subsequently I do more frequent under the valve cover inspections.
