The other thing , when the engine is running, just tighten the rocker until it stops clattering and then back it off slightly...when you have done this more than a few times it becomes easy... Hence my solid litter motor runs pretty quitely. I just put stud girdles and new rockers but did not take a video....I will here soon just to show you......I must ask of you experts.....how many of you have actually built a motor from scratch....and I mean from scratch...not a short block...????

I have been one of those from scratch guys for the last 55 years, Chanmadd. If you like that sort of thing check out some of my gallery pics.
The EOIC approach that Brent suggests will always work best because when each valve event occurs the lifter for the other valve
must be on the base circle of its lobe
