a bit confused about valve lash...

ok, from what i gather i need to tighten the rocker bolt down to where i can no longer spin the PR, then give it about another 1/2 turn? whats worrying me is: arent the bolts too loose if thats how you do it since it doesnt take much to not spin the PR? The next time i give this a shot, ill have stock 243 heads with prc dual springs, ls1/ls6 lifters, 7.4" PR, stock rockers and a f13 (maybe my f10 if its not sold by then.) Could someone elaborate? Ive also seem JRP's FAQ on the torque sequence for the rockers

Thanks,
Nino

We have hyraulic lifters, there is no adjusting valve lash like that w/ your mods. Just follow the sequence in the how to.

I think the confusion lies in the Adjustable vs. non-adjustable rockers.
If you don't have adjustable rockers, you just tighten them down as described in the "how to".
