On the Buick str 8 I screwed a bolt in to the adjustment hole on the rocker arm- milled it flat-made a fixture with a guide hole in it and redrilled the adjustment screw hole closer to the rocker shaft. I did have a clearance problem with the push rod-cured by using the same die grinder I ported the head with I ground the clearance I needeed . The problem was at the top of the hole 1'-1.5' down. Buicks had tubular pushrods and I never bend any at 6000 RPM. Is there anybody else out there that would like to build an engine the way we used to without all the technoligy we have today- just to see if it still works??? 1 OL REDNECK.
