Thread: Roller rocker adjustment review:

Tweet

Okay, I will ask the question, is it easier to remove the engine and place on the engine stand so that you can rotate it or do you guys have a ex-large Harbour Freight type of stand that you attach the car to to enable you to rotate the engine ? I have never done this sort of engine repair before so I will appreciate all help thanks.

It's not a new engine. I'm just going through a rocker adjustment because it sounds a bit louder than I would like, and I haven't done it for a while.

Taking the engine is out of the question. I would have to disassemble the entire front end, grill shell, radiator and a boatload of other parts.

As it is, because of the narrowed frame, low stance and other 'stuff' in the way, I had to remove the A/C compressor and bracket and the master cylinder just to get the valve covers off.

And no, I had no other place to put those accessories.

This project was a case of putting five pounds of 'stuff' in a four-pound bag.


Maybe this photo will answer your question.
