I am reassembling my rebuilt motor and have just installed teh heads and am installing the valve train with push rods, etc. For some reason the geometry seems to be off? After studying the rocker arms, it seems the push rods are too long - is that possible? After backing off the valve adjustment screws the rocker still seems to depress the valvle too far - not that I know what too far is? It seems the valve and pistons are hiting each other (just a feeling I have).
Just to complete the picture I've changed out the cam and lifters, and teh lifters seemed the same height as the ones I replaced. Any chance the new pistons are not as high? I am afraid to keep going in fear that the valves will bang the pistons. |
