9 times out of 10 or more if you use stamped steel rockers your going to eventually find you've mixed up the rockers and balls, now that's usually no huge problem, most of the time but on high lift cams with high spring pressures IDEALLY you want to keep them as matched sets simply because they lap together and randomly replacing components has a slightly higher chance for burning a rocker ball, ok, so you've screwed up....
place each rocker on its rocker stud after coating the balls with this lube as its far better than oil at lubrication under extreme pressure.

then adjust the lash or preload correctly, but theres an option....

BTW... YOU ARE AWARE COMP SELLS GROOVED, & HARDENED, REPLACEMENT ROCKER PIVIOT BALLS, that allow oil to drain quickly into the lower rocker body surrounding the pivot balls... DIRT CHEAP RIGHT??

there ARE reduced ratio roller rockers designed to significantly lower the lifter to lobe pressures during the cam break-in process, and its a whole lot easier to swap rockers during the break-in process than swap to lower pressure springs or remove inner springs from dual spring valve trains during the break in process , OR YOU CAN AVOID THE WHOLE POTENTIAL, LIFTER/CAM BREAK-IN PROBLEM IF YOU RUN A ROLLER CAM
