valve adjustment
[updated:LAST EDITED ON 06-Jan-03 AT 07:15 PM (EST)]Stock valve train is hydraulic on most all FE's, which means your only adjustment is going to be longer or shorter pushrods.
Theoretically you shouldn't have to adjust hydraulic systems like these unless something is bending or a distance is changing for some reason (i.e. valve recessing).
If you really need them, adjustable rocker arms are available.

P.S. someone slip me some caffiene, please!
