I decided to rig up a degree wheel to use in setting up the valve train. It's just a paper 360 degree disk stuck on my trigger wheel with a pointer off 1 of the studs for the cooling shroud. It should be interesting to see where valves open and close.

Have fun with that!!!

Do you have the v/t springs setup in your heads? Those double-throw down dual springs will bend an adjustable pushrod in a blink of an eye.
