Majority of the cars i've seen that have adjustable cam pulleys usually cut their rockers for easy access. I'm goin to be tuning my car very very soon and I'm just wondering would it be that much of a hassle just leaving the rocker as it is? Or would you acutaly suggest going a head cutting the rocker? I dont really want to cut the rocker due to defect reasons and also just in case something gets in there and snaps the belt.

most tuners, such as adrian, will have rocker covers set with cut cam access, used for tuning. once tuned, they replace the rocker cover with ur original.
