Reflections Maybe in a few years I'll look back at this and reflect. |
Shaved The day started with verifying the valve rocker geometry, once we were happy the Cometic head gaskets were copper coated. While we waited for the gaskets to be ready the head gasket surfaces were cleaned and the block surface. Once the gaskets were ready the heads were put on. Next up was to check the pushrod length, a lifter, pushrod and the rocker assembly were put on. Because we are using hydraulic lifters with the adjustable rockers different pushrods were needed. The geometry was checked through the rocker travel, everything checked out. The new valve springs are a little larger in diameter and are very close to the rockers so the decision was to clearance them, time was up so took care of that after my friend left. Due to the grinding the rockers were thoroughly cleaned with Brakleen. | ||
