Do these rockers sound ok??
Its a SR, so I might just be acting paranoid lol But does everything sound ok, not too loud, nothin sounds bad, ect..
Also, the third one back on the drivers side is not oiling, how bad is this??

It sounded loud is the only reason I took them off. Also, I was wondering because the shop set the lash on them.
Ya'll want another video with the covers on? lol
Thanks for your feedback,

Id go back through them and double check the lash on them. Then, see if that same one, is still not oiling. Sounds fine, just like a SR should Actually quieter than my HR,lol. Freakin Pro Mag's are LOUD,man.

Ok thanks flyinz, Ill have to get my uncle to come over and supervise while I adjust the lash.
ss.slp.ls1, I did not, it was already put together. I hate to assume, but Im pretty sure they'd be right after all I've been through. lol
kevin97ss, that was actually my main concern, I thought I heard some knock and hoped and prayed it was just my rockers. I am still a little unsure as to which it could be.
I took a video (mostly for sound) of under the oil pan, trying to determine where the noise was. I can post plenty of other videos if need be.
Im so close now I can taste it, and I dont just mean the rich *** exhaust lol
ALSO, Is there anything special about adjusting Shaft mount rockers??
Thanks alot for all the help,
ZACH

Ok, Well I meant the motor was already built when I got it, and then I had to have the machine shop work on it. Although I didnt ask them to check the length. I would hope the original builder would have done it correctly. IDk lol

Ok, well I'll look into it. I'm starting to lean more towards a slight knock. IDK.
Another question, if my gauge is reading really high oil pressure, like almost maxed out,..could that be bad?? or am I lucky?? lol

I would start in the area that has an obvious problem. Oil not making its way to a rocker needs to be investigated. It could be a simple blockage in the pushrod or a blocked oil passage to the corresponding lifter. If oil is not getting to that lifter it could stick in the bore and cause that knock your hearing.
