Regardless of the method for adjustment (cam manufacturers recommend the way I did it, and so did my builder, and I'm sure there's plenty of other ways), the fact remains that the adjustment is going somewhere.

George, I'll pull the rocker assembly again and take another look at the push rods, but I don't recall any way that there could be any compression of the push rod ends, and I didn't see any wear on either end of the rod. No signs of metal near the rockers, and the one lifter I pulled out was clean in the cup. The only other thing it would seem is the damn cam, but....

In addition, I either lost fuel, lost spark, or something else this afternoon, as I had to be towed home. This is really frustrating.

Thanks for the words of encouragement fellas. I've been sulking around all afternoon. Hard to get this crap off the mind.....
