Exclamation Important!

This next step is a royal pain. Put the bar on the head, and start the screws. If you look below, you will see the rocker arm bar holder. The 2 circles are the areas that you have to watch on EACH HOLDER. The springs want to push the rocker arms onto the holder. If the arm is on the holder when you tighten the bar, the arm will not move. So you have to very carefully start one screw on one end, space out all the arms and/or spacers (the spacers can't be stuck on the holder either) and start the middle screw. Then do the same for the other half starting in the middle and ending up on the other end. Next start the two other screws that aren't in on that bar. If you have all five screws started and one of the arms and/or spacers is stuck on a holder, you're okay. If the screws are just started, you can probably just slide the arm/spacer off the holder. Now, tighten all the screws down hand tight. Do not tighten them as hard as you can with your hands, just until the screw is tight. Next, check all the arms and spacers. Do this by sliding them into the spring, away from the holder. If all of your rocker arms/spacers check out, go down to the next step. If not, you need to loosen up a few of the bolts on the bar, move it around and try again. DO NOT move to the next step until all your rocker arms and spacers check out and are not stuck!
