Maybe someone here has an old damaged or worn out one they could cross section it so we could all see.
As far as the valve stem Heights go, you would think buying a new set of heads that that would be addressed. But it’s been well documented here about these Assembled speed master heads That they fall short in many areas, but they are still usable as is as evidenced by quite a few members here. Some have mentioned using factory style rocker arms but I don’t believe I’ve seen any mentions of the issue I’ve dealt with, or about the various stem heights being addressed. I think most of us would agree as has been mentioned here often, to buy the heads as bare castings and then have them set up properly. But by that time just buying a set of Trick Flows ....... yada yada,
yadda OOTB heads need going through. All that’s been beaten to death. You buy cheap heads assembled like these this is what you get, you can either spend more money to correct them or in our case do what
I’m doing to at least make the situation better.
There is no way I would just slap on without addressing the side to side Slop, or slid on those rocker arms as is, or maybe even took the time to measure for each pushrod, etc. Maybe, maybe not.
Could be they’re running fine who knows.
