hey guys i am rebuilding my sr20det completely and got a complete set of new rocker arms to replace the ones that were on the head as they were gouged by the camshaft cause somehow it looks like molten aluminum plugged up the little oil squirters on the rocker arms... question is, will I have to reshim for the new rocker arms or because i am using the stock automaticaly adjusting hydraulic lifters will they be fine leaving them as is? I am also wondering if there is a way to test the hydraulic lifters to see if they are in good working order?
thanks for your help,
Tim
