Default Clearancing the Rockers

Currently in the middle of a H/C swap and it looks as though I will have to clearance the rockers.

There has been some chatter about this, but I have yet to see any solid directions on how to do it.

So.... How do you clearance the rockers? How much do you clearance the rockers? When is it necessary to clearance the rockers?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kevin

Could you post a pic of one clearanced rocker next to a stocker so that I can see the difference?

If I had a stock rocker I'd take a pic of it...but I dont. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Either way, the other pics are here and I "highlighted" the section we removed with orange.
