97 camaro z28
 
I had a blown head gasket sent heads to machine shop all was good. Insp. Cam, cam bearings, main bearings and replaced them all. Installed new cam from summit racing. Lt4 hot cam kit p/n (nal-12480002). Kit has summit racing hydraulicc roller lifters p/n (sum-ht214) aluminum 1.6 roller rockers and came with new springs. Need help on setting the lash on the rockers and what order will it go in. I tried the way summit told me but must be missing something. The car does run just cant seem to get it right.

Any help would be appreciated

did you have the heads shaved. lt1 likes high compression. you could have brought it up to 11.5 and run pump gas no problem
