I've always been told that roller motors are pretty good about not "meshing" the lifter to the pushrod.
On this 3.0 I've taken apart, I have the lifters and pushrods in order, but the rockers got jambled out of order a bit. None of the pushrods or rockers look wore...think it will be ok?
Or should I buy a whole new outfit?
I ask because I can get it cheaper this weekend if I need to, but all seems to look in good shape.
Just don't want to go through this hell again.

Thanks,
alex.

If it's only the rockers I would just go ahead and put them in. Worse case scenario, you would only have to remove the valve covers to replace them.

or this would be a good time to upgrade to 5.0 roller rockers!

Bolt right in.....:D
