Im buttoning up stuff but I tried putting on the Motorsports 1.7 studmounted rockers on my new set up and having variable results..
I first mounted the stud and guides.. and then torqued to 25ft/lbs. Keep in mind these studs are larger then the stock bolts so the bosses on the heads have already been machined flat for the guides and drilled and tapped for the larger studs.
Next is the rockers and the nut with the little screw stops....
I turned the nut till I felt resistance and then turned it 3/4 turn and locked them. Problem is some of them dont give resistance until the pushrod is already collapsing the lifter. I seem to get rockers that are too tight and some that feel loose after I rotate the engine.
Whats the right way before I put on the valve covers on....
