Valve adjustment
 
Out of curiousity, how often do you adjust your valves on your hydraulic cam/lifter setups? What do you consider a good "rule of thumb" (every X miles) for periodic adjustments?

Hugh? Same time you replace the timing chain... It shouldn't need it. If you NEED to do it you likely have lifters that need replacement.

If on the other hand you are single and need a good manly excercise to impress your babe dujour do it as needed. :LOL:

Sometimes rocker nuts back off, it happens. That's why I like polylocks.

It would seem to me that rocker arms on a high lift cam would still move a tiny bit, even with the hydraulic effect. Wouldn't it just be less noticable?
