So I decide its time to check for valve clearance. Each was a little tight. Very good. Got them dead on. Then I look at the no. 3 ex push rod tube thats been leaking and realize that I can get this one out pretty easy. Out it comes, in go the new o rings and back in it goes. I replace the rocker arms and recheck the clearances expecting them to be a little off but they were very tight. Could taking off the rocker arms and replacing them change the clearances that much? I had to unscrew the adjuster at least one ful turn.

The pushrods aren't seated. The valve adjustment wouldn't change IF you put the pushrods back in their respective holes.
