I posted recently about putting my heads back on my car. Well I got them back on and everything buttoned up and she runs. Which is good, and doesnt blow smoke anymore which is even better. Now my problem is my rocker arms. I think I only did half the job. I tightened them down by spining the pushrods and stoping when the pushrod stoped spining. I never did anything as far as the valve side of things. I read that need to adjust the valve lash? When it runs, it makes a noise that sounds like it is coming from the rockers. Thats what made me think I needed to adjust the valve lash. My question is, Is there an easy way of doing it or should I take it to someone? I read all about how to do it, but I am just not sure. Again I think I am already ahead of the game considering I took the heads and everything off and put them back on and it runs. So I think that maybe the finer points of adjusting and tuning should be left to a pro, maybe or maybe I should give it a shot? PLease advise.
