This is why I'm near done with this forum.. people bringing up arguments about geometry on a thread where I was asking about the correct locking adjusters...
Here's the entire story...
When my Stroker motor was at the machine shop first being built I had some 596 heads.. I have them completely rebuilt with new k line guides hardened seats and so forth.. given the pretty big Cam that I wanted some Crower Springs were put in... I gave them a set of banana grooves 273 rockers and when the motor was ready to fire they said a couple of the adjusters were not holding tight and suggested I get locking ones... I noticed they had clearanced the armpit of the rockers to clear the larger Springs.. with a suggestion from triple r I took a file and cleaned up the cast area on top of where the adjuster nut were locked down to smooth machine type pad.. I used locking adjusters... Since then I bought Hughes roller rockers.. sold my old rockers (I still regret that and especially now).. I bought new aluminum heads and put those on the duster as well...
NOW... I'm going to build a low compression daily driver 408 for a power wagon truck that I'm building and since I still have those heads and they're in great shape I'm going to put those on and I want to build another set of those same rockers with blocking adjusters and knowing the springs that are on there I'll have to clearance the armpit of the rockers no big deal...
I never asked anybody about geometry...
Or did I bring it up... and for the record I don't give a rats crap *** about geometry for my daily driver... I'm not trying to get that kind of performance peaks from it again it's just a daily driver... I have my duster for performance...
