Is there anywhere online that shows how to adjust valve lash for a 351W? Like a nice step by step or something?

Well the biggest thing is going to be whether you have a hydraulic or solid(mechanical) setup. I thought Comp cams had a instruction section on their website that had details on setting valve lash.

well we adjusted them but the back drivers side near the firewall rocker is still making noise. Kinda like it doesn't seat fully against the push rod and valve tip. We tightened the piss out of it and the push rod would barely twist w/ no movement up and down. Then started it up and got some tick around 2K+ RPMs. Push rod isn't bent and the fulcrum still looks fine. Our only guess would be the cam lobe is worn down or the lifter is worn. Guess we will see what it does Saturday. If it blows it blows.
