B18b Lifter Nuts PLEASE HELP
I ripped out my brothers Ls.
Opened valve cover and saw that 2 nuts had fell off the lifters.
Im wondering how many pounds to tighten them to and do i need a valve adjustment?>
thanks

If the nuts were on the rocker arm, you will DEFINITELY need to adjust the lash.
I mean, how would you think you wouldn't have to re-set the valve lash?

Ill snap a pic for you later. Something like this will be necessary to properly set valve lash.

I have a device I made for this. Its a 10mm deep socket welded to the open (circle) side of a combination wrench. The wrench is then bent up a bit to aid in clearing the protruding head components when tightening the nut.
