I just removed the intake manifold.I located the pushrods in same holes they came from.Rocker shafts went back on the sides they came from.First time only thing out of adjustment was #7 intake ,had to tighten.Ran the car out to Spanaway and back .Had to tighten every thing.Went to .014" cold.Warmed up ,re adjusted(tightened again ) to .022" and .024 hot.Lifters were never lifted out of bores.Heads wern't removed.Rocker shafts are on studs and have bolts at ends. Where is all the adjustment going ? I can't see any metal in oil puddels in head. do cams go flat after years of no trouble ?
