Are they side specific? What I mean is, I see in the rocker boxes there's a number cast in the middle. One has a "1" and the other has a "2". Reason I ask is I just had new guides installed as well as the seats/valves resurfaced as well as the head sealing surface.
Now after installing the heads and trying to set the valves, I've had to back the adjusters waaay off just to get the rocker shaft/rockers back on. This doesn't seem normal to me, and I double checked to make sure the pushrods are seated correctly in the lifters. Am I missing something here? Help! I want to put this car back together and enjoy it! |

Thanks for your reply Ed!
How would I correct the geometry if it's off? I've put the motor to TDC for the cylinder that I was installing the rockers on but I had to back the adjuster off all the way. I'll check again, hopefully I was just losing my mind yesterday. Thanks again |
