Default Re: installing new valves

Thom, If it was my vehicle I would contact my supplier and get the 2 wrench adjustable push rods Item# 3058 Lang's "as an example" use who ever you may. These are worth the effort to replace for "now" and "later" valve service.

Those three cheezy wrenches they sell are too soft and will likely round out on your third or fourth "try" when adjusting, with the two wrench adjustables you can use those nice chrome ignition wrenches we all have in that middle draw of the roll away

The two wrench adjustable's using Glen Chaffin's adjustment procedure in earlier posts is quick and easy. Good luck and let us know how you make out.

I might be in the minority here but installing my new cam and push rods and valves was actually a nice learning curve and fun. With out a Sioux valve stem grinder it can be a pain.
