Hi there, I installed and torqued the Rocker arm bolts in my 73 351 C. I did this when each cylinder was at TDC with the lifters being both at their lowest point. 15 of the 16 pushrods feel reasonably tight with no up and down movement or sideways. They sit right in the center of the rocker arm as was described. I checked preload on two and was within tolerances. However one pushrod seems rattley and not as tight as it should be. These are all brand new lifters. I am concerned about this, could this be normal? Maybe it will fill with oil or something after the engine starts? Any help is again appreciated!:huh:
