"I just had a rebuilt 1985 5.7
"I just had a rebuilt 1985 5.7 put in and found out after installing everything that the valves need to be adjusted because of the new Hdy lifters and it also seems to be no oil pumping up thru them?. Its the older style motor were the bolts for the valve covers are on the outside rim, It looks like I can get to 3 bolts easy and 1 bolt looks like maybe a swivel socket may work?? Will the valve cover come off with the exsaust manifolds on? Is there a way I can remove the valve covers without removing the exsaust manifolds from the block? Can I just remove the center rizers and will that allow covers to be removed? Or is it best to unbolt the manifolds from the block and can I do that and have them move a little without taking the whole exsaust apart?.Also can I set the valves on a cold engine Or? What is the best way? Thanks"
