They are stock locks, we have never had a problem with them.

Some of the Stg III stuff has 10 degree Comp locks and 5/16 stem valves, but then you have to run a shimmed up aftermarket rocker or a Jesel setup.

Will the Jesel non-adjustable rockers work with the 10 degree Comp locks?

I have a set of Jesels, was thinking it would would be pretty sweet if the 10degree Comp locks with work with the Jesels.
