Thread: Last minute tips/tricks/suggestions?

thank you

and yes i have new felpro head gasket bolts. As far as the roller rockers go, how does that work? because on my rebuilt heads the valves are already closed. Am i going to want to get piston #1 TDC and then do the rest by firing order?

They're going to be closed with the rocker off, of course, but what about when you go to put the rocker on? If the cam is in a position where it wants the valve open, it will start to open the valve as you tighten down the rocker. This will screw up your torque reading.
