Made sure when you set those up the oiling holes for the push rods are in the correct place on the shafts. I have had to re-drill many of those from Mopar over the years. If they are not it will smoke the adjusters and cups on your push rods.
ABSOLUTE 100% FACT^^^^^^^. There has been more destroyed valve train on the W2/5 stuff because Chrysler put the holes in the shafts in the wrong location. They are off by a MILE. Just junk.
Thats why I’m thinking of selling my brand new 1.6 rockers, shafts and stands and sucking it up and buying T&D steel rockers. I’d get stuck using push rod oiling (which I don’t like) but it’s better than cobbling that DC/MP junk **** togther.
And, if you have all your poo in one pile AND your ducks all lined up you can really only bet about .750 lift with that Chrysler system. After that, you can’t keep the valve gear anywhere near happy and you just kill parts.
I figure with T&D steel rockers I could net .825ish, shift at 7800ish (maybe lick 8k every now and then for a hero run) and make 630/640 HP on 12:1 pump gas.
I just have to be way more motivated than I am now.
