Is the push rod on that rocker bent? Are the push rods the correct length. How does that cam lobe look? What does the lifter look like. I When you removed the rocker was it installed correctly. I've seen them installed with the center rotated 180 degrees. Do the rockers move freely? Check the bearings on that rocker. What shape is the mounting stud in?
