Recently swapped out my Cam, Rockers, Lifters, Valve springs, Retainers with aftermarket affair. I've given it the beans a few times after getting it put back together to ensure nothing was going to shake loose etc, and will change the oil next week after getting my exhaust fixed and putting some miles on it.
So my questions are:
Do I need to re-torque pedestal mount rockers after a while to ensure they are still snug, or should they be fine from the initial install?
Any reason to not beat it like a red-headed stepchild after the 'first' oil change? (We emptied the oil out when we did all the work, replaced my oil pan gasket, etc, etc, etc, so it has fresh oil now, and as mentioned already, going to change it again next week)
I'd like to make it out to the CMC track day on the 10th to see what she can do with my base-line ghetto tune, but don't want to risk damaging anything if that's too soon?
