    Pulled a seriously leaky vale cover gasket and looky what I found! Now, I ain't no expert, but I doubt I knocked those inside ones off when I pulled the valve cover...LOL. Anybody know the torque specs for these darned things?

    Whenever the head is taken off the engine, you need to adjust the valves by tightening the rocker arm nut before it will run,,,,,sometimes those studs pull out on worn out heads,,,,
