I'm setting up the rockers & shafts on my '75 2056 build. I bought the Type IV Store spacer kit and a bunch of shims. However, there's not enough room between the rocker shaft bearing shells for the spacers, shims and rockers. I took the spacers and shells (like the pic below) to 3 local machine shops, and none were able to mill these down to the specs I provided.
Does anyone know a shop I can send all these to to have them milled down to my specs? Thanks -Doug  |

QUOTE(autopro @ Oct 26 2021, 10:22 AM)  I'm running into the same issue with my engine build. Question for you guys is, are the shims absolutely necessary? Right now I can install everything including the solid spacer without any shims and get my .004 float. Was wondering the same thing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) . |
