    When installing roller rockers (and new pushrods), such as Yella Terra or Pro Magnum, is it necessary to rotate each cylinder to TDC? The instructions from YT say to do this, but it is not mentioned elsewhere on other installation webpages. Is there an easy way to do this if it is necessary. Thanks.

    i did not move each cylender to TDC. i have not seen an issuies as of yet.

    if you wanna move each cylender to TDC you can put a rachet on the crank and turn it over. might be easier if you pull all the spark plugs out before you do this.

    I never had any issues and I never turned the motor to TDC either.

    I did however after everything was installed unbolted the ICM plug and had someone crank the motor over to see if everything was moving fine before putting the VC's back on.
