I am adjusting the valve geometry while putting in a Raby 9700 cam and I am seeing .38 on the exhaust cam lift and .496 at the valve (an exh rocker ratio of 1.3) and I have a .39 on the intake with a .546 at the valve ( an int rocker ratio of 1.4) is this what everyone else gets for rocker ratios:
Intake rocker ratio = 1.4 Exhaust rocker ratio = 1.3 These are the 1.7 (1.8?) rockers that accept the 911 swivel feet. I am using the swivel feet, have modified the rocker faces, adjustable push rod, and zero lash to do the meaurements. Do those rocker ratios look like stock? I want to take 50 thousandths off the Combustion chambers to increase the CR, but my measurements say I wont have enough clearance on the Intake valve once I shave off 50 thousandths. I only have ~0.075 clearance now from the piston to the Int valve as it is with a deck of 0.030 and everything else (crank & rods) stock - flat top 96mm pistons. That Intake valve travel of ~0.55 looks huge to me. Anyone else care to comment? Stu |

Ok, so I decided to go with a webcam 86b instead of the other.
I measured it prior to installation. The wecam 86b has an advertised "Valve Lift" of .500/.500 Int/Exh. http://www.webcamshafts.com/pages/automobi...691_001095.html So I measure the cam and get: .365/.365 lift at the cam. .365 * 1.37 = .500 valve lift. So apparently Webcam knows that these rockers are closer to 1.4 than 1.3, but I must just be a "mentally ill idiot" just like webcam..... So based on the advice above (Type-IV rockers are always 1.3), I need to adjust these rockers until I get a valve lift of .365*1.3 = .474 instead of the advertised valve lift of .500. So which is it? Both webcam and I must be "off our rockers" I now have just what I needed. Valve lift of less than .510 on both int & exh. and I can dial my deck height to get a close as possible valve clearance whie maximizing CR. Thank you webcam. Stu |
