    use the molly and run at 2000 rpms for 20 minutes make sure it is ready to run. you want it to fire up an run .cranking on it will wipe the cam. the molly helps stop this. make sure the lifters turn free in the block .do not put molly on the sides of the lifters. only on the feet. wipe oil on the side of the lifters . i can not tell you the lash need to know what you have hyd or soild .if hyd it is O lash an 1/2 to 1 of a turn. prime the engine to this helps get oil in the lifters make sure to use a old dist for a primer so you plug the oil galley
