Hello all! Iam working on a 1969 460 with DOVE A heads thread in pedistal type. I installed comp cams Advertised Duration 268/268, Lift .494/.494 . kit number K34-227-4 purchased through summit racing.com. stock length push rods and stock rocker arms. I am on my first engine build and noticed something odd when installed the rocker arms. The nut bottoms out at the bottom of the pedistal with about 5 or so threads protruding from the top, however the rocker arm is still really loose. I installed the rocker arm then the bearing washer then nut. the search feature turned up nothing useful for me. any help would be appreciated.
Second question
the kit came with a timing chain but was told to keep the old timing chain on my motor since they retarded the timing in later years. I couldn't tell a differance between the two and was wondering if anyone had any advice on installing the new or sticking to the old. the top question is more important to me though.
