he has adjustable rockers and "guessed" at how to adjust them, also tightening the rockers till the pushrod wont turn is NOT the correct way of doing it, i tested this out when i did mine, i could get all the way to the reccomended torque and they would still turn, the right way to do it is to move the pushrod up and down until all lash is out then if it torques down to the setting within 1/4-3/4 turns it is ok, but if it doesnt torque down then it needs a shim
