Message: [QUOTE="kleake, post: 1399400, member: 25987"] 6.0 Tech, you might be on to something here. Passenger side, #1 was at 0, loosened it up and I got 370. Just snug, about 20ft/lbs of torque and I got 340. #3 I got 370 tight, swapped rockers with #1 and now I have 0 even snug, however #1 now has 370 snug and 150 torqued down. Faulty rockers or just minor differences between each one. I didn't test #5 or #7, figured this is pretty telling of what is going on. I'll talk to a machine shop and Ford tomorrow. Easiest solution might be to grind a couple thousandths off the bridges and polish them back up. This would prevent future wear and avoids grinding the ball on the rockers or the tops of the valves. I think I would want to do them all so as to not run the lifters completely bottomed out just to work. We'll see what I find out tomorrow. [/QUOTE]
