Adjustment after broken stud
I broke one of the rocker arm studs on my #7 cylinder. I've replaced the stud and two push rods, the rocker arms are OK. Is there any special procedure I need to go through to adjust these two valves other than cranking the engine without the valve cover on and going from there?

That's about it; pre-lube everything with white lithium, especially the rocker ball, but also the valve stem tip, and the push rod ends. Put the rocker nuts on almost as far as all the rest, start it up, and adjust in the noraml way.
