Just mechanically inclined enough to get myself into trouble from time to time <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />.

I guess since the primary reason for wanting to do the heads was it seemed quicker than doing the valves myself was in order to have it back on the road for this weekend but that's obviously not going to happen so I think I'll take the opportunity to save money for later phases of this effort (read: upgrades) and just do the valve stem seals.

If I pull the cam & rockers off though should I consider replacing the valve lift adjusters? I haven't ran the engine enough prior to taking the plenum off to notice any ticking, and there hasn't been any noticeable ticking when I've idled it in the yard. I'd think some seafoam would take care of any issues they might have if they're not making themselves known otherwise right?
