Default More bad news on the cam install

So I went to see the car tonight in the shop and the mechanic said that compcams should of sent me guide plates. The 1.6rr are slipping off the pushrods and when adjusted them he said that they slipped right off by hand. So does anyone know the part # for the guide plates I need.

Has he ever worked on a SA system? Did they order the right rockers or get the wrong ones?

No they are the right ones I ordered it all from compcams thinking it all would be compatible and he said nothing of needing guide plates. As for the mechanic he is extremley knowledgable he has a 10sec LT1 and a 7.40s race car and is the head gm master mechanic at a hugh dealership. It just makes me made that comp didn't tell me I needed guide plates. I hope the pushrods and rr studs are compatale with the guide plates.
