Default 360 V8 Valve Adujustment?

Hey guys. well as the title said I have a 360 V8 (1995 year model) and it has pushed 123,000 miles. What is the time interval for adjusting the valves on that beast? I bought her in 2004 with 84,000 miles and I have never adjusted the valves on it, nor to my knowledge did the prior owner ever have them adjusted. Is there any big signs that I need them adjusted? it still runs great, I just got to thinking about it and thought it would be a good idea to get the adjusted if needed. Thanks!

They are not adjustable. The rocker arms just bolt on to a specified torque.

what you may have to do is a tune-up, you could be surprised on what a tune does to these magnum motors exspecially if you use perfrmance parts
