Ford Repair: Valve adjustment, feeler guage, rocker shaft


Question
I own a 66 mustang with a 200 6
I have recently installed new rings.I had the head pressure tested and plained 9 thous.I also had the valves refaced.My question is .What should I do to adjust the valves on reassembly.The engine has hydralic lifters and adjustable rockers on the rocker shaft.

Answer
AL

you need a feeler guage.i assume you know the specs for your engine.take the correct feeler guage and loosen the lock nut and check the clearance between the rocker arm and valve stem.remember to push down the #1 cyclinder rocker arms so that the push rod forces the valve down to the collapsed position.sorry i took so long but i have had health issues.
