Just like it says, running Comp R's, hardend 7.2 pushrods, GM guide plates, and Comp Pro Mags (also running Crane springs, Comp locators and isolators/locks).

All of them look good except for number 4, those two look like the roller tip is not centered right on the vavle stem. I tried unscrewing the rocker and the studs and seeing if there is any adjustment room, but there really isnt, and I tried pushing them as far as I could and tightning them, but they look exactly the same.

Whats up with this god forsaken project...

 

If they are self aligning you shouldnt be using them...NSA .i dont know?

 

You dont run guide plates on SA rockers. I am running the pro-mag NSA with the GM guideplates that like everyone on here recommends. But for some reason this one doesnt look like it lines up right.

Are you running GM #14011051 guideplates ?

 

Yes, and I made sure they had the "5" on all of them. Come on, somebody help me out with this!

 

Those using the #14011051 that state they line up well/fine, are using standards of comparo, that are not very precise. If you want to be precise, better bet are adjustables.

 

You very well could have slightly bent pushrod(s).

 

Agree. If you don't like them, get adjustable plates.

 

Switch the guideplates and see if the problem follows. If so you could prolly just buy 1 new GP and go with it.

Take a good look at number 5 too. Thats the same part of the head as 4, so should be off too if its something in the heads, unless machine tolerences were way off.
