Shaft rockers do have a torque setting when checking valve lash. Had a friend this summer setting the lash at the track. He says the lash was tightening up on the intakes. As I watched him, I noticed he was really over tightening the adjustors. I borrowed him my LSM torque wrench, preset at 24 ft. lbs and problem fixed. He was shocked because he has been setting them that way for years. Just a thought.
