My tracking number was very small on the second receipt (email) I received from them. Said Sunday delivery. Hmmmm
First shipment in. They got this shipment almost correct so thumbs up so far. they gave me exhaust gaskets instead of intake gaskets.. LOL. Initial quick eyeball is "looks good". I will do a analysis on them over the next up coming weeks, make a video, and post it. It will be my assessment.

GreyWizard looks like he has a little of this going on:
Ok, I got the wrong head stud kit too possibly... LOL. They sent me PC2459-1/2 and it listed a different part number??? But, I checked my 3 receipts and they didn't charge me for them, so if they are wrong I guess they are free... LOL

Disagreed.... It's going to cost you a cheeseburger at a good cheeseburger place.. and if you keep dragging it on it's going to cost you a milkshake as well...

Definitely tag me I want to know I can't get to mine till next month..
I gotta finish up building my powerglide Transmission so I can clear off my Harbor Freight assembly bench and my porting bench. It shouldn’t take long to flow test one and port one intake and exhaust for testing

I did not notice an issue when I did the mock up for the photo. The rocker set (assuming they sent me the correct parts) is supposed to be the one Speedmaster uses for their top-end kit.
The bottom of the rocker arm is probably contacting or very close to the retainer.

Looks like the spring and retainer are hitting the rocker body and the roller isn't contacting the top of the valve
Are you done yet ? should only take a couple hours to slide a glide together, chop ! chop ! lol

PRH may have arrived at his conclusion because some of the rollers were not resting on the stems. I think they are okay. I will check the clearance out next I have some ambition.

Could be a Sunday delivery. If they use FedEx home delivery it can come on a weekend.

The rocker arm geometry is wrong. Fix that and there will be plenty of room there.

Are you speaking of PRH's photo (not my head)?
Looks like some pushrods with a lifter and cam on the other end would help. LOL
I like what I see.

Yes. I'm going to make an educated guess you'll need to correct the geometry on those heads.
