I just hate to do it that way because of all the oil that splashes out, but it probably is the only way to be sure they are adjusted correctly. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>Find an old stock valvecover and trim away just enough of it so that you can adjust the valves, leave the part that will contain the oil spray. Or you can buy a set of 'rocker-stoppers' that clip on the rockers and block the pushrod oiling hole.
