Business first: '74 TR6. Rebuild. First valve adjustment.
Number 1 piston top dead center.
Adjust valves 1 -12, beginning with valve 1, to .010.
Is this the correct procedure? Suggestions or whatever
appreciated. Also, please verify the .010. Thanks.
Now pictures because I'm happy to have my head on along
with the rocker assembly.
First, finally, finally the block with gasket in place
ready to receive the head:
Head placed on block but not bolted on yet:
Head torqued to 80 lbs.; rocker assembly placed and
torqued to spec, forget the number for sure, but
maybe, like, 34 or 36 pounds or something:
Engine fell off its blocks during head torqueing sequence
and was lifted via chain to be reset:
Lastly: My timing chain cover bolts are not painted. Do
you think I ought to touch 'em up black?
