Camshaft Removal—See Willys Special Data.
End Thrust: Taken by thrust plate behind camshaft gear
Endplay controlled by spacer between camshaft gear
and shoulder on shaft Endplay can be increased by
installing shim between spacer and shaft, or decreased
by dressing off spacer NCTE - Inner beveled edge of
spacer must be toward crankcase
Endplay—.003-.0055".

k-EXHAUST VALVES ("¥" HEAD ENGINE) NOTE—
Thompson "Roto-Valve" or Eaton "Free Valve" rotators used.
Valv Guides ("L" Head Engines): Removable type.
Remove guides from above with puller, install new
guides with driver or press guides down in place to
following dimensions:
Intake Guide—Top of guide 1 5/16" below top face
of block. The shorter, smaller-diameter section end
of guide should be up.
Exhaust Guide—Top of guide 1" below top face of
block. Taper end (counter-bored end) of guide
should be up.
Valve Guides ("F" Head Engine): Removable type.
Drive guides out with Tool W-240. To install, use
W-240 with correct adapters to install guides:
Intake Guide—Drive guide in with taper end toward valve seat until inner end flush with port wall
at guide hole.
Exhaust Guide—Drive guide down in block with
taper end up toward valve seat until upper end 1"
below top face of cylinder block.
Valve Springs: CAUTION—Intake valve springs on " F "
Head Engines are different than other valve springs.

Valve Lifters: Mushroom type operating in reamed
holes in block. Serviced by installing oversize lifters.
Lifters furnished .004" oversize.
Lifter Diameter—.6240-.6245".
Lifter Clearance—.0005-.002".
NOTE—Camshaft must be removed for lifter removal and replacement.
VALVE TIMING
Tappet Clearance: ("L" Head Engine)—016", all
valves hot or cold. ("F" Head Engine)—.018" (Intake), .016" (Exhaust —With "Thompson RotoValve"). .012" (Exhaust—With "Eaton Free Valve").
Adjust "F" Head Engine valves with engine cold.
NOTE—Adjusting screws are self-locking type.
Valve Timing: See Camshaft Setting above.
Intake Valves—Open 9° BTDC. Close 50° ALDC.
Exhaust Valves—Open 47° BLDC. Close 12° ATDC.
Valve Timing Check—Adjust No. 1 cylinder Intake*
valve lash to .020" ("L" Head Engine). .026" ("F"
Head Engine) with tappet resting on low side of
cam lobe. Rotate crankshaft until No. 1 cylinder is
coming toward top of cylinder on exhaust stroke,
then continue to rotate crankshaft until No. 1 intake tappet is JUST TIGHT against valve stem
indicating that valve is about to open. Check position of ignition timing mark on crankshaft pulley
(5° BTDC) and estimate crankshaft position (5°
mark should be approximately XA" before reference
point on timing gear cover). Reset tappet clearance
to correct running clearance as given above.
