Default RE: Rocker Noise

I fully understand what you are going through.

After the engine has been ran like you did, . Rotate the engine and recheck them all in the same fashion.

You will immediately notice all or most of them are loose somewhat and need re-adjusting.

Why, yall might ask, our old rollers, takes long sometimes for the plunger to relax and act different once oil comes to play.

That adds alot of time to this procedure, so readjust them, do not loosen nothin and dont just turn another 1/2 turn as some may not be loose.

I did mine and checked in 4 hours, kept doint so. The car is quiet as all getout, and has the perfect idle.

Hmmm I will try that....I'm not to sure what the issue is....maybe my heads are old and they just suck...LOL....they are about 6 years old Holly/Brodix heads...the guideplates are about 1/4 wider than typical Edelbrock or AFR.....maybe the geometry is wrong or something?
