      I just set the playback speed to 0.25 to see what was up, but it would have been useful to not zip past the point of the video.
      I didn’t see, or hear any mention of setting the rocker nuts to the correct tension for gap afterward.

      If you go to the 4:00 mark that is the start of where we explain everything before the time lapse.

      no you don`t.......... we want to know about the clearance of the `tappetts` when rockers and push rods are refitted. is the rocker held by the nut which rests on a shoulder so its set when tightened?

      I can't believe you sped up the important part to actually watch. Made your video kinda useless. I could look up an explanation how to do it in print.

    I would try to get the best valve stem seal for the heads.
    Also the valve cover gaskets can be glued to the valve cover, cork or silicone. This prevents oil from getting in between the gasket and cover.

    Use a sun filter or close the garage doors, by the way the useful bits are nice if you slow down and explain what you're doing

    Do I just need the motor to tdc or tdc each piston as I go

      Way late answer, but you just gotta set it so the valves are seated. Somewhere along the compression stroke would be perfect.

    You failed to mention valve lash adjustment .. a newbie attempting this maybe not know . No bashing your video just thought it might be more helpful information
