REV With the introduction of the spring-loaded pushrods, it became possible to use pinless valve
yokes at the exhaust valve locations on non-brake engines. Effective 5/5/03 (beginning with
engine serial No. 3J0175), pinless valve yokes (part No. 891GC328A) were implemented
into production at the exhaust valve locations on all ASET™ non-brake engines. This
change went into effect with ASET™ AI and AMI cylinder head and valve assembly part No.
732GB3496M, and ASET™ AC cylinder head and valve assembly part No. 732GB3496M2.

REV The pinless yoke is self-leveling in operation and does not have a yoke leveling adjustment
screw. Inlet and exhaust valve lash adjustments on engines equipped with pinless valve
yokes are performed in the normal manner with the rocker arm adjusting screws.

The bottom of the valve yoke that bridges the two valves has a round hole and an elongated
hole that fit over the valve stems. The nose of the yoke with the elongated hole has two
notches in the casting. When installing the pinless yokes, it is important that the end of the
yoke with the two notches faces away from the valve rocker shaft. If the yoke is installed
incorrectly, the yoke will contact the rocker arm.
