TF 190 Heads

With a roller rocker, believe it or not, no. The stand position is copied from the factory on most aftermarket cylinder heads, which is engineered for a stock rocker, stock valve, stock cam, etc. The roller rockers have different geometry, and need to be moved.

There is one exception. I had a guy put shorter valves in a TF 190 head because he needed a super duty valve for twin turbos and couldn't get the same length TF uses. He was within .010" of correct, so we left it alone. I have never had an ootb head that didn't need adjustment using a roller rocker.
The question came from me having 596 stock heads and 1.6:1 Hughes aluminum rrockers. I do have the shim kit, but everything seemed to drop on nicely. In the center of the valve stem with a very small sweep? Just did seem a little too easy? I guess because before and after I've seen a lot of talk about correcting geometry and that seemingly didn't happen to me? Or it did and I haven't got it yet? I originally had the engine set up at a machine shop but they were using the 273 rockers that I provided them and I switched out the Rockers..
LOL voice commands I had to go back and correct some stuff LOL
