Ok, thanks to Big D Racing for helping me with my clutch...all is well there. And I just put the finishing touches on the Jegs oil cooler kit.
Here's the small problem...now since I have re-installed my valve cover, I went to adjust the valves and something is wrong.
I know you are supposed to have a tiny amount of play when you are at TCD with you rocker arm when you adjust the valves. (thats how you know you're at TDC) Well, I don't have that, and I double checked the "T" at the timing mark. I unscrew the adjuster and turn out the screw and still cannot get a feeler gauge in there...I'm stumped.
I don't want to keep spinning the cylinder up and down because I have any oil in it, due to the cooler install...
The only thing I've done different is re-torqued my exhaust stud bolt since it was loose. I set it at 35 ft/lbs
Hope someone can help before I screw it up...
