The springs are good for 600 lift and my cam is only 555 lift.  
Ive got both spec sheets.

Most people I talked to said to leave the stock lifters in but I had new ones put in anyway.

it sounds like he may not have the appropriate lifter rocker combo the rockers maybee the wrong ratio causing the lifters to colapse and maybee soon to bend pushrods just my 2 cents

No man hug because the next thing I know youll be grabbing my ass.

I dont want a Chevy- Ive been down that road before.

The problem Im having is that I need somebody else to fix the other people’s mistakes so it goes somewhere else. A bunch of cobbed shit was fixed this time around.
