Default Rocker Question??
I have a quick question just checking out my rockers today. Making sure no needle bearings came out. If I grab them by the side and try to move them a little side to side I have a little bit of play in them. Should I tighten them down until there is no play? I know they should be at 22lbs let me know thanks

You are going to have some play but if you want peace of mind do the following. Get the trunnion upgrade.That's what I did with mine, running a cam with 615 lift and I have no issues.
