not many posts on this topic, and its been a while since discussed.
pros and cons of the stocker vs. the manual adjusting aftermarkets?
I know some have had stockers fail, and some got motor damage from it.
My stocker is almost 5 years old and still kicking.
But I wanna replace it now just for preventive measure sake.
Trying to decide on the hydraulic stocker or the manual aftermarket.
Let 'em fly, I'm hear to learn.

This is getting to be an interesting topic.
Bigdaddy and I are noticing more and more "stock" cam chain tensioners sticking WIDE open.
I think there were a few cams that have broke recently. I think, and Note JMO- That a stuck open tensioner may be a factor with cams that have broke.
