Little question are they stud or pedistal mount rockers? On my old 347 I had stud and the adjustment was so far off car ran like crap ( to me It ran ok) but once I took it to the track it only trapped a 109. Knew something as wrong. Had someone re adjust the rockers and the car ran like a beast. One of the rockers was even off some how lol.

So they're stud mount? Might be a little too tight. I only went zero lash + a half turn... Just a thought

Oh yeah and to set zero lash i go by being able to turn the pushrod around or not, then i add a half turn on a hydraulic lifter
