    Anyone ever messed with Shaft-mount roller rockers?

    I ordered some for my truck, dont know about how to install them though. I know I need to pull the orginal studs, tap them. But other than that Im lost. Do I need guide plates like regular rollers? I just dont know.

    15-40 Deisel oil

    Will running that Rotella 15-40 "ashless" oil in a gas truck hurt anything? I bought some old 77 LWB 4x4 to have some fun with, and it came with all kinds of shit in the back....including a 55gallon barrel of that stuff. I was just wondering if I can run it in that truck?
