Question

Need Help with Adjustable Rockers ?

Just installed adjustable rockers on my 360. After static adjusting to zero backlash I turned them 1/4 turn (.025). Now engine is idling VERY ruff. What did I do wrong?
Also, Can I leave the rocker drip trays off?

Thanks,
Dale

I have experienced this on a 302 with adjustable rockers. They are ok after some of the oil gets out of the lifters.
