4. FINAL
ASSEMBLY
After all of the stand heights have been set, and the roll pins have been installed,
place a rocker and shaft back on the stand to assure good rocker to valve alignment and
torque the stand attaching bolts to 55/65 ft-lbs. When the stands are aligned and
tightened down, place the rocker arm and shaft assemblies on the stands and tighten the
shaft hold down bolts to 18/20 ft-lbs. After all of the rockers have been tightened down,
set valve lash and torque the adjuster screw jam nut to 5/20 ft-lbs.
Note: Be sure to check intake rocker arm to valve cover clearance. Some aftermarket
valve covers come close to the back of the rocker, and additional clearancing is needed
