When using 911 Valve Adjusters, with the early rockers (modified of course) what is the starting point on the adjusters. How much do you screw them in to the rockers before you start the valve train geometry procedure. I would imagine you need to have enough threads in either direction for future valve adjustments, but how much ? Thanks for your support, I am at this critical stage on my engine now .

I always shot for it to be about equal thread reveal top and bottom with a smidge more thread for adjusting out cam/lifter wear since that's more likely than a valve tightening, at least with my heads. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I would hate to find out that down the road, I hadn't left enough room for adjustment in that direction and the valve not being able to fully close would be ruined along with those superb heads you did for me. Thanks again to you and to all who supplied input.................Now I can move forward (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
