Zero Clearance valve lash ?

adjust each valve...turn adjuster until there is NO lash....the pushrod should be hard to turn at this moment...they add preload by turning adjuster 1/2 or 3/4 of a turn to pre load the lifter...\\\


the ideal is to have the valve that you are adjusting on the base circle of the cam...not on the ramps....so choose whatever method you like...

Thanks I will try 5/8 of a turn at least they will be set with preload and I can add or subtract since they are adjustable now. I don't like working in oil, it causes things to strip out, so if I don't like it I will have to remove the rockerarms and wash them with gas and do it again. Sometimes more work than I want to do to preserve parts but worth it!
