Does this look okay to you guys? This is at half lift.

Thanks for the replies. Don't worry about "picking on me". I too old and thick skinned for that.
Rhcb, That is indeed an anomaly. There is no dust. That said, Everything will be taken apart and re cleaned and re lubed before final assy. That is when I don't have to take anything apart anymore. This a test, I repeat, only a test. I was mainly wanting know if the indicator and adjuster look like they are aligned like they are supposed to be. I'm using Jake's 9550 cam with valve train upgrade, and 96mm p&c's. I'm also using Jake's valve geometry article as this be my first time. Hey what the hell? I'm a 62 year old virgin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! According to Jake's article, the lift of the 9550 should be .423. After measuring half a dozen times, I came up consistently with .433 total lift( well within the 5% if I did my math right) and pics are sitting at .2165. Swivel foot is not touching, but its real damn close. I've already taken .060 off them, but have not beveled the bottom of the hole either. Is .030 the norm for shims? how do you arrive at that measurement? different size shims and traial and error? Thanks for the replies and keep em coming please. I only wanna do this once! |
