S/B rocker arm geometry and contact patch

Rob, I did this with new rockers ,pushrods and shafts and picked up a tenth. Call me , it's pretty simple. The throttle response was night and day. Though with those "carby" things you use ,it may no be as dramatic.:poke:

Hey! What’s happening?!?!
I’ll give ya a call on this when I’m ready, and probably warmer. Between yourself and a excellent picture of the contact patch someone posted, I’m pretty much sold on this. The reconfigured set up has a milled deck surface on the block and heads (and intake...) with Hughes rockers on top of Edelbrock heads. This current set up is the most wacked thing I have ever put together. This geometry isn’t just off, it’s in outer space.

This is the old engine out of the E body.
