Aaron, all I have available are stock pushrods. I'll be doing the geometry tomorrow or friday with my boss. I figure off of this engine I might need 0.02" or 0.05" of spacer for the rockers because I'm running without head gaskets and without base shims.
When I decide to go with 911 swivel feet I may have to re-do it though... Who knows |

QUOTE(Jake Raby @ Oct 3 2006, 08:35 AM)  Stainless is the worst choice... It has very low yield strength and will snap off much sooner than other materials that can be used. I have chromoly steel exhaust studs that are the strongest thing available, I have never snapped one of them! Stainless isn't the wonder material that some people make it out to be. So , stainless valves are a big no-no????? |

Doing the geometry tomorrow. Only did lots of running around town today... GF's focus took a shit and I have to replace the fuel pump on that. The project gets shelved for a couple of days.
