Message:
Ok so I want to install these but, it seems complicated...
Are these an adjustable fit or non adjustable?...
I got them from summit,
part # S70047

Well, I know you torque em to 21ft/lb
but I don't understand the TDC...
How do I know when the certain piston
will be at TDC?
I have to put each rocker set at TDC
and then tighten.
I also don't quite understand lash....

Btw I'm no mechanic so NO I don't know
what it means when people say there is an
exhaust and intake in the heads or
whatever it is...so explain very thoroughly.
Thank you guys for helpin.

Jeff avoid taking any advice from hairy palms.
After trq. one down, wait a min or 2 before moving
on to the next. On start up it may run a bit rough
if so shut off for a few and restart.

Aw man, can we keep it cool on this forum.
I really wanna know how to do this job.
And I gotcha, wait then move on to next.
Why do I gotta wait a minute or two though?
That makes no sense....
And they are non adjustable so that means I dont
have to put every piston at TDC before torquin them
right?
