Maintenance / 302 valve setting with roller rockers

« on: February 04, 2013, 08:45:43 PM »

Hi folks, still finding my way around here. I have a question about valve setting on a 30/30 cam. I read the CRG report on setting valves cold by setting the valves a 90 deg atdc for intakes and 90 deg btdc for exhausts. The report says this method does not work for roller rockers, it's for OEM stamped rockers. Is there a reason this won't work for rollers and is there a modofied method?
