  Subject: [Chevelle-list] BBC rocker arm adjustment procedure


  Hi all, 

  I am in the process of installing new rocker arms and pushrods on the Chevelle.  It has a 454 engine in it.

  I know for the small blocks there was a procedure I followed for the adjustment procedure that went something like put the crank at TDC cylinder 1,adjust such and such valves, rotate crankshaft 180, adjust such and such valves... and so on...

  Does anyone know what this procedure is for a big block?

  Many thanks.
