I have everything for my Z6 head. I bought a ZEX cam and upgraded valve train. I plan on bringing the head to a shop and having the valve train redone. My question is, when i get the head back and place the new cam in there, what things to i have to do to make things work right. I plan on setting the cam and all that stuff in time, but i heard something called valve lash. The bottom line is that i wanna make sure that there is something that i'm not forgetting to do before i put the head on and turn over the engine.

 

Yes, you'll want to use feeler guages to perform a valve adjustment. Pick up a helms manual and it will give you a detailed step by step in the " Head - Removal and Installation" section that will include all the steps required to put the head on including the valve adjustment.

 

sounds good, i'll do that. Anyone got any more advice?

 

use assembly lube
