Economical replacement rocker arm set?

I changed my oil again, checked the filter. No signs of anything. Also, the residue that I was speaking about is gone. I am going to do a oil sample test just to be safe.

Question, when I changed my cam from what was supposedly a 285 to a 268 should I have also changed the push rods due to different lifts? I have the old cam so I can measure it with a pair of calipers to compare against the XE 268. I am thinking that things are just loose with the rockers.
the lift is irrelevant. it's the difference in base circles. reread the earlier posts. If you are going to compare base cicles, check at least several on each cam.
