Not really...the factory rockers/lifters are non-adjustable. (Set it and
forget it)
Jules really knows his stuff on the Magnum engines but it sometimes a little
bit pricey. What ya lookin fer?

Subject: DML: Rocker Arms
Ok, I have developed this nice little ticking noise in my drivetrain. I
believe it is coming from the rocker arms. I have heard other dakotas and
rams also that made this light ticking noise. Almost sounds like a really
huge injector (like something Bernd would need, ya know a 120 lb/hr ;o) I
have changed the timing chain, so I got rid of that rattle, it had enough
slack in it to grab the oil deflector a few times and bend it, and that was
at only 79,000 miles. I put a double roller on it so I shouldn't have to
worry about that for a quite a while. Are the magnum series of motors known
for rocker noise? I am going to yank the valve covers right now, so I hope
I
can narrow it down. If they need replacing, I am going to replace them with
the Crower roller rockers. Do these have to be adjusted? Just wondering.
Bernd, did you have to adjust yours? Another question, Magnum Performance
is
the only place I can find a cam for the V-6. Is it worth a flip or would I
be wastin gmy money? Thanks
