valves dont need adjusted , never moved the adjustment nut took the whole rocker off
I have removed a lot of rockers in my day, on many different engines. At the minimum, I ALWAYS recheck every rocker. In theory, nothing should change, but I have come across a few per engine that do. Enough to make a serious difference, no probably not. Double checking them makes me sleep better at night, and reduces call backs. Covering my A$$, essentially.
