Message: [QUOTE="SFO, post: 141784, member: 21864"] K&L or Motion Pro sell the angled feeler gauges that PJ describes along with a 2 piece tappet adjuster that allows you do this job with two hands instead of trying to hold a feeler gauge and two wrenches whilst feeling the tension on your screw tappets.(three handed wannabee nightmare) The biggest bummer I have experienced is people over tightening these screw tappets. Resulting in a)stripped adjuster bolt heads b)stripped rockers c)cracked rockers d)cracked adjuster bolts My best advice would be to feel your hands. The short handles on the special tools are meant(I believe) to discourage overtightening. [/QUOTE]
