Hmmm... My 96 camaro had a hydraulic roller cam and rocker adjustment wasn't as
critical as it would have been with a solid roller but if you tightened your
rockers too tight you could still collapse a lifter and if you left it too
loose it was possible to have the rocker fall off the pushrod or at the very
least make a lot of noise. Following proper adjustment procedure was still
critical. More than a few of my Chebby buds have had maladjusted rockers cause
them trouble. Iguess it would be possible to get close but still...
I'm confused:(
