Okay guys, thanks to a few of the board members, I'm able to give a link to scanned copies of how to adjust the valves for your Raptor. I'm not sure of the legalities, so I'll just say that I placed it there for me to keep if I have a drive failure. But if you want to look at it, then feel free to do so. I still suggest buying a manual.

where did you get the info ??

 

Raptoraz emailed it to me. I just put it in Photoshop and cleaned it up a bit.

 

Bash I see you got it
nice job
see ya

 

Bash, Nice Job

Now does anyone know where to get the tappet adjusting tool or can we just use feeler gages?

 

I was thinking we still needed feeler gauges and that the tappet adjustment tool was to help hold the stud. I'm sure it can be done without that particular tool.

A buddy gave me a really nice Proto feeler gauge that has several different feelers with a ground in dimension and an alternate dimension. It will make for a real nice go/no go type gauge for adjusting the valves.

 

Bash I'm confused I was told that the valve adjust were shims. looking at the adjustment according to your manual it looks like there are two rocker arm adjustments? Does that mean the other three valves are shim adjust? Is there more to the manual? Thanks for your input!
