Default Type of rockers?

What type rockers does the LS-1 use? My brother has a '98, but we don't have the manuals yet.

They are needle roller bearing type with standard (non-roller) tip. Close but no cigar. :D

Thanks, maybe they just need to be torked a little tighter then.

Are they just that noisy? I haven't driven any other C-5's.
