I have solid lifters (so does ElM., DCDoug, ERA Chas, and others) so my valve covers are off and I'm wrenching on the valve train regularly. What I was trying to hone in on was for the benefit of the hydraulic lifter crowd that are asking themselves "aw man, do I realy have to pull my valve covers and retorque my valve train?" And I submit the answer is still "No." Unless of course, there was poor workmanship or a defect in materials -- and then that would hold true for any part on your car. |
