It's not as easy as that. The original "alignment" was done from the pushrod side. This is either from the slots in the heads, or from the guide-plates that are retained by the screw-in style studs...But if you try to control the rocker arm from the valve stem side (self aligning rocker arms) and the pushrod side at the same time, there will be binding of some kind. Not good....

Bad planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an instant emergency on my part....

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
