Answer

This engine uses hydraulic lifters that require no adjustments just a simple installation of a torqued rocker arm bolt.

  1. Lubricate all parts with heavy engine oil before installation.

  2. When installing, rotate the crankshaft until the lifter is on the base of the cam circle (all the way down) and assemble the rocker arm.

  3. Tighten the nut or bolt to 17-23 ft. lbs. (23-31 Nm).

  4. Proceed to the next rocker arm in the same manner.

  5. Feel free to contact me with any questions! Good luck!
