Valve adjustment Mercruiser 3.7 AKA 470

[Joel Barton]

As you know there is no adjustment for the 470 Mercruser. My solution was adjustable push rods. They can be purchased for $11.00 each from Smith Brothers out of CA. (800-367-1533) Whole lot cheaper and easier then trying to find or buy 1 of four different sizes. Tell them you want a push rod adjustable from 8.5 - 8.75 .inches with a 3/8 diameter.

This ad sounds like you work for them.

Adjustable rocker conversion for a Ford FE motor ( where mercruiser got the head) is $125 at summit.

Adjustment without the downside of adjustable pushrods

I do not work for anybody, totally retired. The push rod fix was my idea for a fix that actually worked for me
