Not to spend the OPs money, but I would really consider stepping up to the the full 7/16” diameter rocker studs due to your new higher cam lift.

You have screw in studs so it’s a breeze!

This will save you from potentially snapping off the top threaded portion of the stock stud.

I wish I did that twice in my lifetime right off the bat!

Steve,
Not a problem.

I’m thinking once there pumped up. They don’t bleed down unless car been sitting for a long time. It sounds like to me, after you back off and compression pick up, you went and put new nuts on and went right back to same adjustment.

I got think about that for a while have to run it through my mind.

Stock quadrajet rebuilt by me about 2 years ago. Ran fine before the engine rebuild.
