There are no rules and there is always something to be learned from each
other.
Sometimes easy to ask one and receive one or two questions and answers at a
time.
Sample
Question: How do you remove and install bushings in rocker arms?
Answer: I found a Craftsmen socket of the correct size and set it up in a
vice to push it out. Installation is about the same way. This is followed by
the use of a reamer to correct size or using an adjustable one. I have a
friend with one. Replace rocker arm shaft as necessary. Usually replace
these.
Someone will always have a better way....and then a controversy will start
on the value of lightening the rocker arms, themselves. I just polish them
so they look good.
And so it goes....all you have to do is ask. Somebody always knows and
nobody has it all...except maybe Hardy P and Jack W

and since I'll be going through much the same process at the same time
with the GT6, I'd love to hear those theories as well. Is this
something that's appropriate to do, at least in part, on the open list?
