I'm trying to install the rocker arm shaft assembly on my '73 F engine and can't get it to fit flush on the head. What's the trick to get this to slide down into place without forcing it? I've tried moving it back and forth, tried separating it to see if one half was binding up, and used a light tap with a rubber mallet, but I've still got about a 1/2" gap between the assembly and the head (see where the red sharpie is pointing in attached pic.) I was able to remove it by leaving the valve cover studs in, so I wouldn't think they need to be taken out first.
