Re: Valve adjusting
Stock flathead valves are adjusted by grinding the valve shafts on the lifter end. We have a very old tool set that will get us close, When we rebuild an engine we use the adjustable lifters with the self lockers. Many years ago, even with great care, it seems we always had at least one noisy valve. Taking the intake manifold off is no small job, as most know, but the only way to fix the problem.
