What about the spark plug tubes w/ 2 valve cover gaskets on a 392 hemi???
hi everyone, what about the spark plug tubes if you use 2 valve cover gaskets to clear adjustable rocker arms? Won't they be too short? I've never had the valve covers off of a hemi so I'm not sure what's up in there.... Thanks, Bill

Get adjustable pushrods and just use one gasket and stock valve cover

Jerry, I don't know anything about doing this myself so I'd have to have it done. Is it a big deal? Expensive? Are you talking about changing rocker arms to stock? Thanks, Bill

stock non adjustable rockers used with adjustable pushrods----Valve lash is adjusted with 2 bent wrenches. Take two wrenches, heat and bend the open ends at aprox 90* and weld on a short t-handle at the box end.

Ditto on the model kits! My best were lost when the Hobby Shop burned under suspicious circumstances....
