    Gregg's right, they're hydraulic and shouldn't need adjustment.

    If you have adjustable push rods (I have them in one engine as well), run the engine for a few - pull the valve covers real quick and snug them up. Don't make them real tight just snug to take the slack out.

    You only need to do this if your getting some chatter.
