rocker adjustment
 
is it best to adjust the rockers with the stud girdles on or should i remove the girdles then adjust the rockers thanks.

Leave the stud girdles on just loosen them enough so that you adjust your rockers.

Good advise. Too bad you don't practice what you preach.

I was checking valve spring pressure, not adjusting valves. I least I didn't let some dummy talk me into traveling 200 miles to a messed up racetrack.lol.

At least you didn't go the Finals of supercomp and not get any $$$.

I ran a 1.178 60' in the left lane at a 7.99 and a 1.130 60' at a 7.99. Only problem was that light was a .525 in the left and a .575 in the right. The rollout has to be messed up. Everywhere else I 60' around a 1.085. Being slower I can live with but the inconsistencies in the lights you can't over come. We probably won't be back unless alot of changes transpire. Its a shame because the track looks great. Pits are nice. How long have the scoreboards not been working?
