Alright to start off i have a 6 bolt head that i just machined and bolted back down, valves are all good, andsprings are OEM 1g valve springs. i am running dks 272 cams with 3g lifters and 1g roller rockers. my problem is that i have to push with all my might to turn the cams, and i noticed that all of my rockers do not touch my lobes(1/8'' away) if i spin the cam, the ones that didnt touch will touch until the next revolution. i am lost for words as to why this is happening. i have done head jobs several times before with no issue until now. also, YES i have lubed the valve train with assembly lube, and no i do not have the bottom end at tdc. hopfully this is enough info
