I'm about to install a new roller cam with a new set of roller lifters and self-aligning roller bearing/tip rockers in my TPI motor, 350 Chevy, and wondering if someone could point me to a tech article or describe the proper procedure for installing and adjusting them.
This is my first set of roller lifters/rockers to install.
I take it I still fill the lifters full of oil to start with, install rockers loosely, then not sure on how tight to screw down the rockers initially / preload etc.?
Thanks

There is no difference as far as that goes between roller parts and any other lifters or rockers. If you have a favored technique that you have successfully used in the past on flat tapets and ball fulcrum rockers, it will work just as well on the roller stuff.
