Should be hydraulic,no adjustment necessary unless you do some valve train work

Well...I'm late to the party...as usual..but To adjust the valve lash :
1 . Put cylinder one to TDC (compression stroke)
2 . Adjust one, five and six intake valves
3 . Adjust one, two and three ehxaust valves
4 . Rotate the engine until cylinder four is TDC
5 . Adjust two, three and four intake valves
6 . Adjust four, five and six exhaust valves
To adjust the valve, slowly tighten the locking nut (make sure the pointed side of the nut is up) while you rotate the pushrod in your fingertips. When you feel the slightest resistance stop. Tighten the nut 3/4 turn, I like to go about 5/8's of a turn because more damage is done with them too tight that loose (can always re-tighten if needed).
When locating TDC of either cylinder four or one, make sure the timing mark is at "0" on the compression stroke.
Firing order :
(0) <----distributor
5 6
3 4
1 2

There are two different lengths of pushtubes on that engine, be sure to get them right in the slots. other than that, they just need slack out of them to work. The lifter tubes just need to be very slightly snug with now loose motion in them up or down. The oil in the hydraulic adjusters make it go up and down smooth.
