INSTALLATION/ADJUSTMENT
1- Pushrods in the X-Wedge® are all the same size and length. It is still recommended that they be put back in the place they started, rather than

mixing them around.

2- Start with one cylinder at T.D.C. on the compression stroke—which puts the tappets at the base circle of the cams. Install the pushrods back

in the position they started in. Apply assembly lube to both ends of the pushrod.

Be sure that the pushrod tip is seated in the tappet cup. Severe engine damage may occur if the pushrod tip is not in proper position. Use
a light and look down in the hole to verify the position.

Note: X-Wedge pushrods are installed with the small diameter tip facing the rocker arm.
