" Guys,
" I got the heads put on without incident, thanks for the website info. I'm going to put the valves and the rockers in this week. I've been told how to do it but another guy I talked to said I am supposed to use a metering guage and gap between the valve spring and the rocker.
" 
" I read in my Chilton's manual and it shows how to install them, but says nothing about gapping. Anyone know what the gap is, if any?

if you're running solid lifters, i don't know but it's usually
something like .020".

if you're not running solids there is no lash adjustment.  if you have
adjustable rockers, run them down to zero lash then another 3/4 turn
or so.
