Default rocker arms...out with the old in with the new?
Figured this would be quick so...I had the "pins in the oil" thread and ordered new rocker arms for the car. They are factory replacements. Since I'm just replacing the factory pieces I don't need to worry about checking anything right? Or do I need to go through the whole "procedure" and see if I need to add any shims?

Thanks

With factory rockers you shouldn't have to shim anything. However, be sure to check your preload and make sure have sufficent preload on the lifters. Other than that, you should be good to go!
