you need adjustable rockers, or you might be typing out another horror story. sell those jesels and buy some adjustables (patriots if you dont have the cash, and you might come out even )

you MUST set the right preload on comp r's. you COULD just get the comp 850's like me and keep your jesels. depending on your cam and stuff. i'm not sure (since it looks like you'll be running a pretty healthy one )

i would just shim your jessels if it was me but if money is no object than get adjustables.i just shimmed my factory rockers .030 for comp rs and it runs perfect.
if you get the patriots you will need valve cover spacers and longer plug wires so keep that in mind
