Reassemble the rocker assembly using the solid spacers in place of the springs. Do not install any washers at this time. All "A" locations will use
the long spacer and all "B" locations will use the short spacer (Figure 2).
NOTE:
SPACER KIT P/N MD361652 WILL INCLUDE 10 LONG SPACERS WITH A DIMENSION OF 29.2 MM (1.149 IN), 2 SHORT SPACERS
WITH A DIMENSION OF 25.0 MM (0.984 IN), AND 24 WASHERS WITH A DIMENSION OF 0.4 MM (0.0157 IN). THE LONG SPACER
WILL BE USED IN ALL "A" LOCATIONS AND THE SHORT SPACER WILL BE USED IN ALL "B" LOCATIONS. THE WASHERS ARE
USED AS SHIMS (IF REQUIRED) BASED ON THE MEASUREMENTS TAKEN IN STEP 17.

Install the rocker assembly to the head without the lifters in place. Take note of each lifter location so they can be reinstalled back into the same
rocker. Carefully snug the bolts evenly (from the center outward) to bring the assembly back down to its original position.
16.
Torque the bolts to 10 Nm (85 in. lbs.) in the following order: bearing cap 3, 2, 1 and finally 4.
17.
Measure the clearance between each rocker arm and spacer using feeler gauges (Figure 3). Tap each rocker over, if necessary, to get an accurate
measurement. Write each measurement down to determine if washers will be required based on the table.
