How far past 0 lash to preload lifters with adj. rockers?? Zero lash then 1/2,3/4,1 full turn on the adjuster??? Or is there a set spec.
One other question while I have you in here.Anyone know if the Comp adj. rockers fit without spacers? It looks really close. I've heard the other shaft mounted rockers(excluding the yella terra's) needed the spacers.
Thanks.

Re: How far past 0 lash to preload lifters with adj. rockers?? its real easy....all of them get 22 ft/lbs of torque....regardless of engine position.....turn the engine over a couple of times...and re-torque to 22 ft/lbs to double check.....
thats all
simple and easy with the ls1
just do like me...I'm pulling off the valve covers just to paint them...and a double check of the 22 ft/lbs is gonna happen then too....I figure that anytime I have to get in to tem it is worth double checking them to make sure all is good...It only takes an extra 3 minutes...

Re: How far past 0 lash to preload lifters with adj. rockers?? unless it's a '98, then you might need to clearance the edges of the rockers.
you also might need to remove the metal baffle on the new valvecovers.
