Would it cause any harm to use Lash Caps and Swivel Feet?
TIA!

Swivel feet (Elephant Foot Lifters) are a great idea. Far less rocker arm
tip wear and internal friction. HOWEVER, do not use the type that have a
ball with a flat spot on them. THey are hard to adjust and if you over reve,
the ball can turn and change valve geometry by as much as .020 or more.

We have the elephant foot adjusters in stock. We also have valve lash
caps, but they are not really required (unless you are running very high
spring pressures.)

I think I will try the .080 taller than stock lash caps and forget
about the ball swivel feet adjusters.
