Hi to all,
I will change the studs and nuts of my rocker arms. For this reason I will have, for the first time, to adjust my valves.
I have a '71 BB with hidraulic lifters and stock rocker arms. I have find some information about this operation, but all is about the first regulation in the rebuilding (when the lifter are "not charge"). A friend say to me the best method is to cut a couple of valve cover and, when the engine is in exercise temperature, adjust the valves while the engine run ( see that
[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSR36fmBR6M&feature=email[/ame] ). With this operation I "hear" the 0 lash and, after that, I turn 1/4 for 3 times. Between one turn and the other I have to wait for 10 second for allow the lifter to adjust.
What is your opinion? Do you know an other method more easy for have the best result?
Thanks for your helping and apologized me for my waste english.
Daniele.
