are you familiar with Roller rockers? I just don't know what they're supposed to sound like. Mine you can hear loud and clear with the hood open. Grease said that you really shouldn't be able to hear them unless you have your ear up close the valve covers.

I only did mine a 1/2 turn past where I couldn't spin the pushrods, Grease was sayin that TPIS says it should be almost 2 full turns??

Great diagram Shoe! Just wondering, could the integrity of the wiring harness been damaged during the install (scraped insulation, bad pin tension, damaged connector, etc.). Again, just a thought...

Anything is possible, but those kinds of things seem to be rare.

I know that they can cause some chatter and an LT4 KM will fix valvetrain noises but I'm not sure about THAT loud?? I've always heard to tighten it enough that you couldn't spin the pushrods but 2 full turns almost seems like overkill. Waz would know that better than I though, I think he's running RR's too.

Ya those things are loud. Jeff, did you make sure to get all the air out of the system? I know last time we had soem still in there. Might just try that again too.
