When tearing down a old valve train I found that you can get a cardboard box or a 4 by 4 block of wood cut to about 2'. punch or drill holes and label them right bank/left bank, intake and exhaust. Now put you push rods in as you take them out and be careful not to drop or spill. The box works the best unless you drill the holes in the 4 by 4 close to the exact size of the rod. But the 4 by 4s are reusable. Now for the lifters and rockers.( Naturally FEs are on a bar) get a empty egg crate box and number them as mentioned above. Now this should keep them seperated till you are ready to intall them if your careful. I have found that all engine are this way especially SBCs. I know thats a bad word around hear, but they all have wear patterns when they have alot of miles on them. As Al suggested if they are new then if probably don't matter. Notice I said probably.. |
