"Palm to forehead",  why didn't I think of that?  Thanks Peter for saving me all that work. Besides, I would have to figure out how my new electronic works.Mike MacLean

    In those desperate times at a race, you loosen adjusting nuts and
    slide the rocker to the side, unless you have solid spacers.

      I am not pulling the head. I may be wrong, but I have to
        remove the head Stud nuts on the pedastals to lift the rocker
        assembly off the engine to replace the pushrods.  I'm thinking
        the other stud nuts have to be loosened also to re-torque the
        head properly. Is there another way to replace the pushrods
        without loosening all the head nuts in sequence?

      Why pull the head at all?
