Default rocker stand bolts
Has anyone had a problem with the 8mm bolts that hold down the rocker stand with jesel shaft rockers pulling out of the head? Valve springs are 260 on seat 800 over the nose. thought about putting 10mm bolts in.

10 mm and helicoils / timeserts. Aluminum threads suck - especially with the spring pressures you're running.
