i just got an adjustable pushrod to find my proper length and used a sharpie on valve stem ... on the exhaust side of 1st cylinder i was able to make the sweetspot line in the middle of the middle BUT i tried on intake side of same #1 cylinder but the roller rocker tip wasnt sitting correctly! only half of the tip was rubbing off sharpie!!

ive searchd valve train geometry an adjusting but only one page said something about having to get it serviced at a machine shop if it was like this the picture should explain better.... And is this a problem?*duh* what would a machine shop due to correct this can i do it in my garage? Verticle adjustment i can do with the adjustable pushrod but how do you adjust horizontal center for proper roller tip placement???

**** tthink ima give up : ( try an tackle the heads an valve train some other time...ima pull the heads an put my stock ones back on today..hope nobody posts a quick an easy fix to line up ur roller rocker tip on center of valve stem cuz im really close to makin these heads work but im jus giving up! lol UHG spent like 1500 on heads after machine shop an everything, got the stud an guide kit, 1.6 roller rockers adjustable pushrod an all to have to pull it out an go a different route haha i waste my time doing things backwards ot poor man route jus gotta save an do all at the same time...when u got every thing u need !

Still curious to how the fitment issue would be fixed wat would a machine shop do fill in stud hole an relocated a little to the right? bend the stud? lol no clue

Still curious as too why the rocker tip didnt line up correctly and how i would go about fixing / aligning it dead center....

Use adjustable push rod guide plates. Pushrod length determines how far up-down. Guideplates determine left-right.
