I agree 100%, new doesn't = good, although it's sometimes easy to overlook.
Someone mentioned a cracked header, I'll check them again, and pull them if needed.
I'll check the springs closely.
Any recommendations for replacement rockers?
Also, I'm looking at all the pics I took so I can obsess over this when I should be working, does this retainer look off, as in not right?
I know pics aren't as good as being there, but I'm stuck at work.
