Arent there some lifters or rocker brands that say you should soak a roller rocker for instance in ATF for a while to clean it before install? I feel like Ive read that somewhere.

QC was apparently smoking a cigarette on that one.

Judging by the spellings in many of the “For Sale” ads I read I would say there is a good chance that was stamped in the USA.
