1964 Valiant "Get Runnin & Drivin"
I had Mike at @B3RE work me up a set of rocker relocation shims, since I am using 318 valves in this head. They are .300" longer than slant 6 valves and I knew that was going to require relocating the rocker shaft closer to the valves to get geometry correct. This is what happens when you deal with a true professional. This post is for all you yahoos that were arguing with Mike regarding the need for his shims and that his theories were wrong. Yall are simply incorrect. Look at this contact mark. Just a tad to the outside of the valve tip. That means as the rocker opens, the sweep will be
from this point, to a little inside of this point since as the rocker opens, the tip moves towards the shaft. This will be a dead perfect rocker sweep. You naysayers keep drinkin your Kool Aid. Mike knows what he's doin. Thanks, Mike. This is going to work well.
