The only way I can adjust them is to do it one cylinder at a time (2 intakes or 2 exhausts)
Then pull the cam and adjusters lock the locknuts, then recheck them. Then move on to another pair of valves
Any ideas on an easier way to do it?
Art,
I'd cut the adjuster boss down to where you can get a wrench on the adjuster in there real easy or if this is a super stock motor I'd weld the adjuster to the rocker and make the pad that the rocker sits on stationary. (as long as there's room for cam/cams
