Installing the lifters, pushrods and rocker arms on my Chevy 350. I also show a quick easy way to adjust your lifters. This engine will be going in my 1971 C3 Corvette.

Excellent video sir, thank you! Rebuilding a 305 in my 1985 C10, and now I know this piece of the puzzle!

Great video. I noticed you used Ultra Sticky assembly lube on the push rod tips. Why not use the grey assembly lube you used on the lifters? T/Y

I do valve lash setting the same way. Easy and reliable.

I have always done it that way without any issues. Thanks for watching.

Thanks. Just about the time I think I have it figured out it kicks my butt. I guess like they say, "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger", right?

I was wondering if u set preload only once and not the full 2 revolutions that ks

@timewiththedurbins 3 ай бұрын

I did 2 complete revolutions of the motor when setting the preload on the lifters.

I’m doing a very similar aluminum head replacement with stock stamped steel rockers. You said Elderbrock gave you a new length. I can find a recommendation for the dart shp heads. Any ideas?

@timewiththedurbins 7 ай бұрын

To determine the correct pushrod length for your SBC engine, you would typically perform a pushrod length measurement using a pushrod length checker tool, taking into account factors like cylinder head type, rocker arm type, camshaft specifications, and valvetrain geometry. There are some videos on KZfaq explaining the proper procedure. I would also contact Dart to see if they could provide the correct push rod specs for your setup.

When putting the bolts onto the rockers what was the red stuff in the bottle?

That was Permatex Ultra Slick Engine Assembly Lube, part #81950. I was trying a couple of different assembly lubes during this build. The other one was Sta-Lube. Engine Assembly Lube, part #1007912.
