I just put new 1.7 Svo roller rockers on my junior windsor heads, and after tightening them down as much as the directions say to do, they still have a little bit of play from side to side, theres no lateral rectriction. Is this normal, should i worry about it or what?

thanks
Erik

I think that my lunati rollers do the same thing. Tightening them down has nothing to do with the lateral movement. The clip that holds the bearings in will determine how much it moves that way.
