    i use smiths or trends push rods most of the time.i use the set up checker from jesel and T&D and then use the ferry mild lift tool for fine tuning from there.i set every thing at mild lift. every thing works fine that way for 10 over years .the roller tip comes in the play on the size of the roller and how long is the valves and where the rocker stud sets to the valve guide angle if the same and other things as well . i will not going to get in to all of it on here other to say some rockers geometry is better then other s rocker arms. i have posted on here about the poor value of roller tip rockers with stock ball trunnions. i have stuff out there with over 350 on the seat and 1075 open alot of builds going past 7500.rpm and still living the way i do it.on shaft rockers it can take over a days labor some times to get them right
