Steve, I agree, the intake won't go on until all the rockers are on, adjusted, and each cylinder is showing compression.
chuckies, I wouldn't be posting here if I didn't want people's advice. The lifters didn't come with any instructions on how to adjust the valves. The plungers don't have much movement, so I was going to start with an 1/8 turn past 0 lash.
Do you think it's safe to build oil pressure just by cranking? I could pull the distributer and spin the pump if I had to. I have the oil priming tool around here somewhere from when I first started the engine.
