RE: Rocker arms wiggle
you want to adjust each rocker when that particular cylinder is on its fire rotation. i would assume that it is the same, anyways, i have roller rockers, not exactly sure of the differences of installation

RE: Rocker arms wiggle
Did you put the rocker guides back in? Those are the u shapped things that bolt under 2 rockers, the bases fit inside them...keeps the rockers straight. Why did you have the rockers off? What did you change?

RE: Rocker arms wiggle
Yeah the rocker guide is in. I took them off to replace the head gaskets and i got my heads milled. Havent had much of a chance to work on it or i would have already got it figured out,i guess. this weekend for sure i'll have her running.
