My buddy is installing a new cam in his 454.He has them cam in and after adjusting the lifters.When he rotates the crank 4 of the intake rockers get really loose,like 1/4 of gap.He said he adjusted them 4 times following the instructions and still no luck.The pushrods are in the same spot they came out of.Also they are new lifters.I did a cam in my 454 and had no problems not sure what is going on in his.Any help would be appreciated.Blazin

solid lifters? is he running it to adjust them? the only way to adjust your lash when a motor is not running is when you run solid lifters. if they are hyd. lifters then how is he adjusting the lash without the lifters being pumped up? a little more info needed for anyone to diagnose properly.

Hyd.lifters. he is setting them according to the factory.TDC on #1 in firing position,adjust exhaust 1,3,4,8,intake 1,2,5,7.Then rotate so you have the #6 TDC in firing position and adjust exhaust 2,5,6,7,intake3,4,6,8.Blazin
