Default Roller rocker wear
I’ve got about 4-5 hours of run time on the new motor. Would you expect to see wear marks on the roller tips this soon? They all have wear mainly on the outside edge of the roller.

Thanks

They're supposed to be new rockers, but I'm not so certain which is why I ask. They were the same ones I had in the motor originally.

It could be my eyes, but I'm used to seeing everything soaked in oil after running.

It was a little milky condensation from sitting so I wiped them off.

I wiped the rockers off because they had milky condensation on them. Oil pressure is good 60+ at idle
