6.0L Head/Rockers Install Help
Putting the heads back on a 2005 6.0L motor.
Manual states to rotate crankshaft until dowl is at 6 oclock position, then tighten down the rocker fulcrum bolts. I can't see dowl nor have ability to rotate crank. Thinking at 6 oclock some pistons are top and other two at bottom. Manual only has you place crank at 6 oclock once per head. so not sure what this does. Currently the pistons are near TDC and bottom. Is there away to install fulcrum bolts without rotating crank? Thanks, Last edited by KCS250; 02-06-2010 at 05:00 AM. |

I have 30" of snow on the ground will likely be working on this tomorrow. With both crank positions two pistons are up and two are down.
Seems like 6 o'clock and 12 o'clock are the same, in either position some valves will be compressed when tightening the rocker arm fulcrum bolts. The service manual must say this for a reason. |

It is so your valves are in the proper position for tightening.
