Adj. Rockers // PICS & ????

OK, I was expecting something like this to pop up. I installed the lifters & rocker arms/shafts tonight.


I adjusted both valves on #1 cylinder and I have NO adjustment screw threads showing under the rocker. I remember being advised to have at least 2-3 threads visible. Nothing binds and the springs clear the rockers fine.


I figure between the compressed #1008 FelPro gaskets and the possibility the block was decked when MP re-manned it I'd have a problem. Question: Should I shim the rockers? Of do I dump the entire pile of parts into a pick up truck and drop it all off at the machine shop and say "Don't call `til it's done...." Or leave it alone..
