adjust rockers?

just curious on something. i took the intake off the 390 and replaced with a streetmaster. i made sure i put the rocker assemblies on the sides they came off of. they are adjustable units. do i need to readjust them or can i put them back on the way they are. maybe im just lazy! if i need to readjust them whats everybodies method. thanks for the help.

Sence the rockers are bolted to the heads and the push rods go through the intake and not afected by the intake, they "should" go back on with out ajusting them.

Should be fine. I adjust my erson rockers with the engine running and a flexible allen wrench made from an old speedo cable I welded to a cut off allen wrench. It's the only way I can seam to adjust the rockers in a hydraulic FE with anti-pump up lifters.
