Hy 73scoutcrawler, welcome, I need a bit of clarification, what is the "post" you're talking about? When you go to install your rocker arm/shaft assemblies you shouldn't have or don't need your pushrods in place yet, and if you do install the rocker shaft assemblies with your pushrods in place, then all the rocker arm adjustment locknuts should be loose, and the adjusting screws backed off, hope that helps.
