Rockers...

How do I know if they are worn without actually stripping it down? i am assuming that once they start to wear/peel, the valve clearances would be greater, thus creating a tapping sound. I cannot hear anything untoward, but then again, with straight through pipes & these damn nosisy clutches, it would be hard to hear anything!
The other thing that concerns me is the reported loose alternator nut problem. Again, would this show itself up as a noise, or is it a strip down/check it out jobbie?

Its easy to get paranoid about noises when these so much clunking going on!!
