Re: 6.0 ls rocker arms clatter

That worked. Definitely got some rattle there. I used a method Richard Holdner has a video that checks length by counting the turns to tighten the rocker bolts. Find zero lash then count how many turns it takes to bottom out. 3/4 to 1 and 1/2 turns is acceptable for stock lifters. I have morrels and had 3/4 of a turn with stock 7.4 pushrods with my setup. So far so good

What is your oil pressure? I have heard of a lot of junk lifters these days, but rarely do you hear that they are all collapsed.

As stated previously, I would go with Morel of Johnsford. They both manufacture their own lifters and stand behind them.
