1.
DETERMINE CORRECT STAND HEIGHT
Install the rocker stands on the cylinder head using the 7/16-14, 12 point attaching
bolts. Be careful to keep the rocker arms in the order that they were removed from the
stands. The stand marked with a "LOE" in the lower left hand corner of the stand is for the
left-hand (looking at the head from the exhaust manifold side) outside exhaust valve. The
stand marked with a "ROE" in the lower right hand corner of the stand is for the right-
hand outside exhaust valve. The stand marked with a "ME" in the lower left-hand corner
is for the paired exhaust valves in the middle of the head. The stands that are marked
with an "IN" are for the intake valves, and are interchangeable. There is a "V" stamped in
the middle of each stand to note that this is the side that faces the valves when installed
on the head. Remove a rocker arm from one of the shafts and place that shaft on a stand.
Take the shaft height gage supplied with the kit and place it on the valve stem as shown in
Figure 1.
The gage should contact the top of the valve and the rocker shaft as shown in
Figure 1.
If the gage contacts the shaft before touching the top of the valve stem, as shown
in Figure 2, remove a corresponding amount of material from the stud bosses on the
cylinder head. This will lower the rocker stand on the cylinder head.
