Now... about those rockerarms...?
O.k. I got the new stud in. Can anyone tell me how to adjust the rockerarms. The way I did it was... 1)bump motor over and make sure valve is closed. 2) loosen nut untill the pushrod is loose. 3) Thghten the nut untill the pushrod is difficult to spin. 4) Tighten nut one quarter turn and tighten the locking screw.
Problem I am having is that I still get clatter at mid to higher RPM ranges.
Can anyone tell me what I ma doing wrong?

when you say "Thghten the nut untill the pushrod is difficult to spin"
it shouldn't be difficult to turn, you just want to get all the play out of the push rod.
adjust it with it running. loosen it until it starts to tick then tighten until it stops then go another 1/4 turn ...done.
