Im thinking it might be one or more of my Cobra 1.7 Pedestal Mount Roller Rockers, how do I re-adjust them/set them up better so I don't get a ticking sound?

Do I need to take off the upper intake to get to the valve covers?

Thanks

call crane cams tech line (they make that rocker arm) @ 1-386-258-6174 they can tell you adjustment specs...yes the upper intake needs to be removed but you can reuse the gasket with no problems...

Pedestal Mount Rocker Arms are NOT Adjustable. They are designed to just bolt down. There are however, specific shims that fir below the bases to compensate for some valvetrain inconsitencies. They are available in Ford Motorsport. Part number is M6529A302. They run about 10.00 plus shipping.

Once they are received then you need to learn how to set up the rockers for proper shimming
