how to adjust valves on stock 460

When I replace the seals - what's the best way to adjust the valves? The way I remember is with the engine running, back off till they tick, then tigthten 3/4 turn..

Typical stock 460's do not have adjustable valve trains, just torque the rocker to the specified torque.

Or you have a early one with Rail / Cast Rockers, CJ / SCJ or PI Engine?

Or do you have an engine that has been converted to an adjustable valve train with studs and guide plates?

as he said,do you have a 1/2 head bolt, if so 18 to 24 ft lbs, if you have a stud with a nut we need more info ,because theres a few different styles

ok, will find out - may not be till later this evening...but I think it's just the stock 1/2 inch bolt.

if you ever are working on adjustable rockers the process you described is a terrible way of adjusting. With engine not running, tighten nut till you get zero lash and then give 1/2 turn (only on adjustable hydraulic lifters) while following firing order

I have the factory manuals and double-checked what they said - basically it's just torque the bollts to 18 - 22 ft lbs.

The detail in the manuals is crazy detail! I wish they'd put stuff like that out for today's cars...
