all lock nuts are tight, by correct clocking do you mean the pushrods rotating? if so then they are as the paint has slightly worn all around the pushrod where it contacts the head... which btw doesnt look to severe as its just rubbed off paint but has not nicked pushrod i did have to clearance the heads for the 3/8" pushrods when i built motor, perhaps i should go a little more on clearance? could that of caused the bent pushrod?
