ABSTRACT:
An adjustable valve lash train for an overhead valve engine includes a rocker arm stud having a threaded shank received in a correspondingly threaded bore in said cylinder head. The rocker arm stud includes an integral head having a spherically shaped bearing surface on the undersurface thereof in engagement with a correspondingly shaped bearing surface on the rocker arm. The head of the rocker arm stud includes a hexagonally shaped recess in the top surface thereof for receipt of an adjustment tool. A threaded jam nut is received about the threaded shank of the rocker arm stud for selectively locking the threaded shank against rotation with respect to the threaded bore of the cylinder head. A push rod guide plate is sandwiched between the cylinder head and the jam nut adjacent the shank of the rocker arm stud for controlling lateral displacement of a push rod.
