Is it just the valve springs holding the shaft up through the rocker arms. Looking at my "A" there is no time when all of the cam followers or lifters are on the base circle of the camshaft lobes. These engines have approx 0.232" valve lift with the lash adjusted, witch will hold the towers up about 1/8". Make sure the lash adjusting screws are backed off, place all pistons at mid stroke, and pull the shaft down evenly with the nuts. If you are in doubt as to interference in the valve train, keep checking the valves for free movement by pushing them down with your palm until towers are seated. Then turn the crank easy by hand and adjust cold valve lash. My two cents.
