Last but not least for pics from the tech sessions are pics on an alternative GM 6 cylinder valve adjustment (for solid lifters) procedure presented by KCMongo's friend Jerry Rivers. The chart pic shows how the engine can be cycled until the #1 cylinder is at TDC, then listed valves (numbered front to back on the engine) for the rockers to be adjusted to the noted gaps (in thousandths of an inch measured by a dial indicator) either Hot (H) or Cold (C). Then cycling the engine until the #6 cylinder is at TDC, to measure and adjust the rest of the valves. Once set this way, the valve adjustments are spot on to GM specs, without having to rotate through every cylinder to set the individual cylinders valves. Accurate and a definite time saver. smile
