valve adjustment

[cabinkiotio]

My next trip to my cabin will be in two weeks. I just ordered valve cover gaskets for my late 51 8n. I left my repair manual at the cabin. What I am looking for is to make sure it has adjustable valves and if it does I will order the tools to adjust them. I had a set that I used on my 52 8n but cannot seem to find them. My sn.427154 . thanks all

A late 51 should have the adjustable ones in it.

I just had to drill out the block on my 1951 8N block to adjust the valves
