Marc,

Thaks for the tip and good catch!

I will definitely check the rocker shafts for migration when the engine comes out this winter. So, the RSR seals will help prevent oil leaks and increasing the torque values from 1.8 to to 2.5kpm will help prevent the shaft slippage? If done, this should e a 2 part repair/checklist i'm guessing. Was your 3.2 was rebuilt and the builder used the factory torque specs on the rockers? I'm just curious as my engine (3.0) has not been apart and wondering if it could be suffering from shaft migration.

-Charlie
