 In those desperate times at a race, you loosen adjusting nuts and slide th=

                                          <div>"Palm to forehead",  why
                                            didn't I think of that?
                                             Thanks Peter for saving me
                                            all that work. Besides, I
                                            would have to figure out how
                                            my new electronic works.</div>

                                            have to remove the head Stud
                                            nuts on the pedastals to
                                            lift the rocker assembly off
                                            the engine to replace the
                                            pushrods.  I'm thinking the
                                            other stud nuts have to be
                                            loosened also to re-torque
                                            the head properly. Is there
                                            another way to replace the
                                            pushrods without loosening
                                            all the head nuts in

                      In those desperate times at a race, you loosen
                      adjusting nuts and slide the rocker to the side,

                      <div>I am not pulling the head. I may be wrong,
                        but I have to remove the head Stud nuts on the
                        pedastals to lift the rocker assembly off the
                        engine to replace the pushrods. &nbsp;I'm thinking
                        the other stud nuts have to be loosened also to
                        re-torque the head properly. Is there another
                        way to replace the pushrods without loosening
                        all the head nuts in sequence?</div>
