I don't like the resulting angles with the offset rockers and lifter seats, but I suppose it's still less extreme than a Gen 2 Hemi valve train.


And then there is the argument concerning side loading the roller lifter. What is harder on the lifter, side loading the lifter bore from pushrod angularity or side loading the roller with the offset cup?

Less p/rod angle equates to more net lift, correct?
