Ok, after mocking up the alignment...It looks like I need to take the .060 off the swivel side...right???

Yes, I am going with a stock flywheel at this time....I need the smoothness and not the wild rev up and down from a lighter flywheel... Thanks for the info on the swivel feet...... |

No, these are swivel feet to replace the valve adjusters. Instead of a solid bar rolling/rubbing on the valve stem, these have a ball and socket that is allways aligned with the end of the valve...its cool because it is used in the little winky 911 valve adjusters....one of those "got to have's" because you can.....
Makes my car more 911 than before...I also want to use them due to my high lift cam and extreme valve geometry.... |

Yes, you need to take .060 off the swivel side to make them clear. I have 911 adjusters on my 2270 with a 163/86b cam.
I needed a little shim under the rocker as well - .020 if I recall??? (IMG:http://www.qtm.net/~persot/t4-9-27-31.jpg) I have one oddball adjuster with the standard head, but the rest are phillips... Tom |

that's what I do! Group: Members Posts: 20,065 Joined: 27-December 02 From: Port Hope, Ontario Member No.: 26 Region Association: Canada |
QUOTE(crash914 @ Aug 30 2004, 08:00 PM) one of those "got to have's" because you can..... You must run these or lash caps if you have stainless valves. The stock adjuster will mushroom the end of the valve stem without them. |
