    Thank you so much. I like your diagram. Your video was the only one I found that help me to understand adjusting solid lifters values on my 235 six-cylinder engine/ chevy Apache 10.

    After having your Baja Bug for so long, it’s probably a treat, adjusting the valves from above! 👍

      Hey Tony, my Baja had hydraulic cam so it has been a long time since I had to pull the feeler gauges out

    Will this work for Chevy 235 with 848 head?

    My dad who was a mechanic adjusted the valves with the engine running. Old school I guess.

      @@DesertRatFabrication No they were solid. I don’t know how these old guys did it but they used the feeler gage while the engine ran. I’ve tried it but I do it like you.
