So what I need to know is this.  What color is the valve cover on your
engine.  If it is black then I have the same engine with VERY low miles and
can just check mine.  Check out this link of my install and see if yours
looks like this: http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4291534383 If it is a
blue then we would need to confirm that the clearances are the same.  If it
is red (red would be very unlikely) then it is not the same valvetrain at
all.  I will talk with my forum for you because you can't post as a newbie,
plus I know who to trust in the VE section.  All you want is the Valve
Clearance Correct?
