Is the shimming required to get a better average in the spring seat pressure throughout all the springs?
Is it neccessary to check the valve lash on the LSx engines when using stock or aftermarket solid mount rocker arms (non adjustable ones)?
If the valve lash is off or out of specs, then what would you do to correct?
