I JUST BOUGHT A 1990 302 5.0 USED MOTOR AND CHANGED ALL THE GASKETS ON THE ENGINE AND PUT THE HEADS BACK ON AND TORQUED THEM DOWN ALREADY
MY QUESTIONS IS AFTER I PUT BACK IN MY PUSHRODS AND PUT ROCKERS BACK DO I HAVE TO ADJUST THE ROCKERS OR PUSHRODS OR ANYTHING ON THE HEAD FOR THAT MATTER MY MANUAL SAYS TO ADJUST ONLY IF NEW VALVE SEALS OR GUIDES HAVE BEEN INSTALLED BUT JUST NEED SOME INSIGHT ON WHAT TO DO AFTER HEAD HAVE BEEN TORQUED BACK ON

Stock heads, stock pushrods and stock stamped rockers?

It's NOT illegal. It's just frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane.
