[Healeys] valve adjustment

[Dave Porter]

FO: 153624  Start with #1 at TDC. # 6 push rods will be rocking
simultaneously. Thus #1 is on compression stroke and both valves can be
adjusted on #1. Rotate engine till #5 is at TDC, #2 push rods are now
rocking, adj. both on #5, rotate engine till #3 is at TDC, #4 rocking and so
on through the firing order... actually you can start anywhere once one sees
how the cam opens the valves in relation to the position of the pistons..
