Bill,
Thanks for the research. I just didn't remember, I thought the cap that actually contacts the cam follower was a nut and then it was a locknut below. But I didn't remember.
And you're right, I can't imagine this amount of spring change, would make a significant difference during the life of the engine.
Have a great day,
