I love it when I search for technical information and one of my homes have a YouTube video about exactly what I need.

[ModsnRods]

You can leave stud girdles on while adjusting

[lukeharper]

So good to see how it's done. Just got a new blown SBC built so will be checking them frequently.

you want the girdle on and snug as its going to change clearance

Very kool seeing you at the beginning, My question is, do i need a pcv valve for my e85 street/strip sbc 383 or can i just run breathers on each valve cover? Keep Mr Sparkles how -to info coming, the supercharged sbc is going to be a strong runner

[anthonyking]

So you alow for 2 thou differance?? You also have alot of faith in the stud girdle not moving the lash!

Camshaft suggestions on a LT-1 with stock heads, dualplane intake +750, muncie 4-speed and 2, 56 rear for street use?

haha love the red, white and blue color scheme

What cylinder do you move to next or doesn’t it matter?

🟥🟥🟥🟥🟥🟥🟥FYI....(1..Leave the coil wire in the coil, disconnect from the distributor and ground the coil wire . If you have a coil bypass on your starter, you'll be supplying voltage to the coil and without a ground, (like spark plugs) you run the risk of damaging your control module.
(2...When using your feeler gauge, slide it side to side instead of in and out for a more accurate reading. Just saying.👍

If you were to set valve lash on TDC instead, what difference in clearance would u find compared to the method you’re using here ?
Thank you sir.

[KingOfCrank]

Not sure if anyone is listening now but should to adjust a mechanical solid lifter with the engine at operating temp?

[davidmartin]

thanks on letting us listen to the engine -__-
the puppies section was more entertaining

[lukeharper]

How do you know what feeler size is required?

[stephencox]

[Othmanalamodyk]
