. lf the measurement exceeds the service limit,
recheck using a new valve.
. lf the measurement is now within the service
limit, reassemble using a new valve.
. lf the measurement still exceeds the limit,
recheck using the alternate method below, then
replace the valve and guide, if necessary.
NOTE: An alternate method of checking guide to
stem clearance is to subtract the O.D. of the valve
stem, measured with a micrometer, from the l.D. of
the valve guide, measured with an inside
micrometer or ball gauge. Take the measurements
in three places along the valve stem and three
places inside the valve guide. The difference be-
tween the largest guide measurement and the
smallest stem measurement should not exceed the
service limit.

The actual valve seating surface. as shown by the
blue comDound, should be centered on the seat.
. lf it is too high (closer to the valve stem), you
must make a second cut with the 60'cutter to
move it down, then one more cut with the 45'
cutter to restore seat width,
. lf it is too low (closer to the vslve edge), you
must make a second cut with the 30" cutter to
move it uD, then one more cut with the 45'cutter
to restore seat width.
NOTE: The final cut should always be made with
the 45" cutter.

Select the proper replacement guides. and chill them
in the freezer section of a refrigerator for about an
nour.
Use a hot plate or oven to evenly heat the cylinder
head to 300"F (150'C). Monitor the temperature with
a cooking thermometer.
CAUTION:
. Do not use a torch; it may warp the head.
Do not got the head hottel than 300"F (150"C1;
excessive heat may loosen thg valve seats.
To avoid burns. use heayy gloves whon handling

tron.
2. Zero gauge to shaft diameter.

NOTE: lf any rocker arm needs replacement, replace
all three rocker arms in that set {primary, mid, and
seconoary).

Camshafts
Inspection
NOTE:
. Do not rotate the camshaft during inspection.
. Removg the rocker arms and rocker shafts.
'L Put the camshafts and camshaft holders on the cylin-
der head. and then tighten the bolts to the specified
torque.
Specified Torque:

Seat the camshaft by pushing it toward the distribu-
tor end of the cylinder head.
Zero the dial indicator against the end of the distrib-
utor drive. then push the camshaft back and fonh
and read the end play.

- Lift the camshaft out of the cylinder head, wipe
clean, then inspect the lift ramps. Replace the
camshaft if lobes are pitted, scored, or excessively
- Clean the camshaft bearing surfaces in the cylin
der head, then set the camshaft back in place,
- Insert a plastigage strip across each iournal.
Put the camshaft on the cylinder head. then install
the camshaft holders, and then tighten the bolts to
the specified torque as shown in the left column on
this page.
Remove the camshaft holders, then measure the
widest portion of the plastigage on each journal.
