2.
Check pushrod-to-cylinder head clearance. YOU MUST CHECK TO ENSURE THAT THERE IS CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE PUSHRODS
AND THE CYLINDER HEADS (.005" minimum).
3.
If adequate clearance exists between the pushrod and head, slowly turn engine through at least two revolutions while watching pushrod.
Make sure that pushrod does not rub on the head either at full lift or when the valve is seated.
4.
If pushrod rubs on the cylinder head, remove rocker arms, loosen the rocker studs and move the guide plate as needed to provide
clearance.
5.
After checking all pushrods for proper clearance, ensure that the tip of the rocker arm is making adequate contact with the top of the
valve stem.
6.
Carefully re-torque to 45 ft./lbs. any rocker studs that were loosened. Check alignment again to be sure that the guide plates did not
move while torquing the studs.
