No I understand. I'm sorry you had a problem, if it was a wide spread issue I'm sure that it would be all over this board, hell would have been for a while but this is the first I have heard of it like I said.

I hope it works out, they're a damn good head.

i choosed the non adjustable Yella Terra roller rockers becuase i will not need to adjust them. i'm not sure what are the advantages of adjustable roller rockers over non adjustable rockers, some one might chime in and help.

Well, if you use Comp Cam R lifters there a must in order to set proper preload. Other than that I don't think it's necessary.

From: Comp Cams web site
Regarding 875-16
All Pro Magnum Lifters™ require an adjustable valve train for proper operation.

That sucks. Hopefully it's resolved to your satisfaction.

No doubt the Trick Flow heads are solid performers. I chose AFR when I first put together my current setup. I like the fact I can use the stock rockers and they flat out work at the track. Service is important to me and that is one area AFR really shines. They make a quality product and stand behind it 100%. Of course it's alway nice to have Tony here supporting his product.
