    Did you check to see if you had the correct pushrod length before installing the rockers?

    Or the wrong spring retainers. I think Pat McCarthy had a discussion about a similar deal a couple weeks ago.

    Spring retainers are factory. I went and bought him factory stamped 1.6s and it seems they're not contacting so we will see what's what in the next week.

    the 480 lift is measured at 1.5 and I'm worried about his stock springs now running 1.6s. The vehicle NEVER sees high RPMs
