rocker removal
im doin alot of work on my car while my tranny is being built, one thing is checking my pushrods and changing my valve seals. I need to remove my rockers but dont want to just start taking the bolts out. My question is do I need to put the cylinder im working on to TDC?

My advice is to get a push rod rod length checker $20 from sponser. The 7.4 are probably fine but you will be amazed how quite your valvetrain will be with the proper length. Send me a PM if you want more info on using the PR length checker.
