You don't have to adjust them running! Chevrolet didn't ! "Static" valve lash adjustment, as outlined in the shop manual, is all that is needed. But it needs to be done correctly. No need to put up with the mess and getting burned by the exhaust and hot oil. If a static valve adjustment d...

I'm on the list for their catalogue. It will be interesting to not only see what they have offer but to compare prices with the other vendors! Many of us have wished for such a vendor, with a glossy, color catalogue for years! I have to agree that this will put our beloved little car in front of the...
