Message: [QUOTE="Patrick Feeley, post: 842474, member: 2142"] Putting the motor in the 11 o'clock position is to avoid lifter jacking (the lifter pumps up with residual oil pressure when the rocker/pushrod is removed). If the pushrod and rocker are installed with a pumped up lifter, you can get engine damage when the engine is turned over. In the 11 o'clock position, an oil drain path is provided so the lifters don't pump up. It may not be a problem if the engine has not been operated for a while, but it only takes a second to put it there and not take a chance. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
