Default OEM Rockers Question

Inspecting the rockers on my 02 Z06 and I am noticing that the center part that passes through the rocker and pivots ... (I think its called the trunion) has some slop in it. All the rockers seem to have some wiggle and I am wondering if this is normal.

I tried to show how much movement I am finding with a short video. Hopefully it shows that the trunion can move side to side and up and down a small amount and I am wondering just how tight they should be.

Thanks.

I just heard from SDPC on another forum and thought I would pass this along to you.

The reply I got from them said that the movement shown in the video is pretty much the same as the new lifters so I guess some slop is normal.

Good luck with your build !
