I'm in the process of checking the lift of the new cams I purchased from Jake. I would like to verify that I have the dial indicator positioned correctly to check the lift. Is this correct?

......................I would suggest the following.....1) Rig up an entirely different way to mount and locate the dial indicator.( a c-clamp to the D.I. base and head or fins.).OR use the intake manafold studs for the plate/ D.I. location...2). you want to have ALL the hold down nuts for the rocker arm shaft studs, torqued properly.(with out your plate possably distorting alignment of R.A shaft.3). INSTALL and tighten the adjuster nuts.4) determine how you will measure the cam-@ .020- or @.050 ths...and ensure the D.I. has complete travel..(plus enought extra to keep tension on the guage/dial.)., from completely open to closed...and of course the 50% lift/rocker arm alignment completed...........................murray
