have just got done setting valves on 56-235 sounds good minimal lifter noise noticed that some push rods were sort of spinning while others werent just that mean that ones that are spinning are correct and the non spinning wrong or visa versa havent done this type of valve adjustment in years so am curious anyone have thoughts on this thanks

Originally the lifters rotated and as a result the pushrod would rotate as well. As the camshaft and lifters wore down the rotation often ceased, while everything gets a normal oiling I dont consider it a problem.
