LS1 SWAPPER what length pushrods are you running?. And too add to this I am also running the Comp-R's, adj. rockers and did the same preload (cold lifter 1.2 - 1.5 turn past 0 lash), have been running this for some while up to 7k and nitrous with zero problems. I am running a 7.035 length pushrod, i should have bought a pushrod length checker, I now have a set of 7.200 and a set of 7.400 as backup, buying the checker would have been worth its weight in gold!

Yes, adj rockers will help but youll have to keep re-adjusting and thats a pita for a street car!

Can you say Hi Jacked! 
It is interesting to know people are running more preload than Comp recomends though with no issues. I'm still skeptical though...

try this on a 232/240 , .61x ...and tell me how it goes.
These lifters were designed for .600 lifts and above with good amount of duration.

Racer8102 push rod length is very specific to combination, I run milled head with much thinner headgaskets so my push rods are shorter, camshaft will effect this as well as valve lenght, seat positon and depth.
