    I have had a Bae 5 for about 4 years now an also worked on a few promods with Bae 5 an 6 heads I was told from day one that you always have to undo valve adjustment after a day of racing an then adjust all rockers an oil pushrods before starting. Is it true with a Bae 8 head you no longer have to do this? Or is there a newer style rocker system that has a better oiling system I don't know about? A few turbo guys I know have now told me they just spin engine over for a min to prime then send it. They both have Bae 8 heads tho thanks for the info.

    I've been told TFX blocks grow more than Brads? We run his shaft style rockers, but have ran T&D and BAE (black stands) and never done this. We spin it to prime the oil pump and whatever else. We've never ever burnt up a pushrod on any of them from not doing it.
