With the cyl. on the comp. stroke tighten the rocker till all the play is out of it & tighten it 3/4 turn more.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

Print this off and keep it for reference, its the same motor only in a Oldsmobile.

Only instead of one full turn in, go 3/4.
