OK, good catch. Guilty of bad terminology (not ignorant of technology). Must have had a Senior moment.
What I was trying to say is that
I never thought I'd have to do valve adjustments again. With the Chevelle, even with locking lifters (which were a racers aftermarket item to help reduce the need for frequent adjustments) they would get loose from the power and RPMs. Obviously, the lifter adjustment on the Carrera is also a needed regularly scheduled maintenance.
