> Back off all the adjusters
>
> Loosen all the head bolts
>
> Remove the head bolts to the rocker pillars and remove rocker assembly
Install new rocker assembly complete with pillars
> Adjust valve clearance

> Look down the spark plug holes with a scope to check for piston damage.

> Curse that I will have to remove the head anyway
>
> Curse that if I had installed my rebuild with the 1098 stroker crank I could have been driving this car.
