[FC] valve lash

[Ken Hand]

You can easily look at the head and tell what valve is what. You can see the exhaust ports and the intake runners on top, the corresponding valves are right over the exhaust port and the intakes are right under the intake runner. 
BTW, don't look at the long horizontal runner and wonder where the intake valves are, there are vertical runners that you can see from under the engine.

Re valve lashI am helping a friend cold- set the valve lash in his 110 motor. The assy manual says to rotate the motor to TDC  on #1 in compression and then gives the procedure on how to adjust the rocker nut. After setting those valves the engine is rotated one complete revolution C.C. and the rest of the valves are set using the same procedure. At one time there was controversy about the order of which valves to set. Are we correct in following the assembly manual? ALSO: looking at the head with the nuts installed you see the 6 valve stems under their rocker arms. As we look at the head is this the correct sequence of these valves going from left to right:......I,E., I.E, I,E.ThanksTim Werner'61 Rampy 140 -4 spd
