Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

They weld the ramps on the rockers then regrind the shape so you get a harder surface. Keeps high lift cams from eating up the rockers.

Ok, that makes sense. I was picturing them welded to the pushrod, or some such nonsense... 8O

Stock and mild street cams normally don't require this...the more radical stuff does.

Rockers are the pad that the camshaft lobe runs on with your valve clearance adjustment on the other end. It rocks on a shaft in the head. Welded rockers are only a plus. They are hard welded like some aftermarket camsafts with very hard weld then reground smooth. Much more durable than stockers. Probably not needed on a mild camshaft but its not going to hurt anything for sure.
