Ten 4 , yes alot of memorization involved for sure.
Ya mean I can’t get an app for my phone to do it automatically? You actually have to “do” something? Hmmmm that’s a strange concept.
I’m sure they still work as the base circle is still in the same place. I have not seen a decal like that in years. I had one on my fender in high school and my 340 had hydraulic non adjustable rockers. Just looked cool and was like $3.00 at the dealer.

I had one on the firewall of the Super Gas 67 Barracuda in my avatar cause I thought it was a good idea. After messing with trying to use it again a few times, I ignored it.
That one is for bigger duration cams, adjusting 2 valves every 90 degrees rotation. The other MP chart is for everything else, adjusting 4 valves every 90 degrees rotation. Of course you, we all know that. Never had a problem using either. Pretty fool proof. Use it, check/set them that way always to be consistent not doing it willy nilly or inconsistently. Stay on top of any changes to lash checking things at the same point on the lobes. Rotate the crank to line the mark on the balancer with the timing cover every 90 degrees and check 2 or 4 valves. Not seeing what the issue is here, other than laziness with rotating the engine over every 90 degrees

EOIC is the easiest fool-proof way for me to do valve adjustments.

Thank you.- bought these years ago and laminated them at work for future reference
What ever works for you. I never liked it. I do cylinder at a time. Never missed one that way.That one is for bigger duration cams, adjusting 2 valves every 90 degrees rotation.

Exactly. Ultimately Whatever works. My point really is that it will always be consistent as you’re checking the valves with the lifter at the same point on the cam lobes using the balancer marks. It is accurate for monitoring things.

Yes sir - all that comes with the solid lifter and like u said if done periodically as it should be u will find potential issues early.Exactly. Ultimately Whatever works.

I have only seen this one
Now u making me want the other one also
I run a Romac like that . But if I knew it was chrome I wouldn't have bought it ! Its like staring into a mirror with a strobe light pointed at the mirror !
Who thought that was a great idea ?
I just painted mine black and etched the marks by hand afterward .

I bought it because it was priced right and barely used / those Aussies took our place with quality
I have other Mopar performance one not sure which one I will use
Oh it's definately a quality unit .I just never thought about the shiny finish until I went to time it .
I run their billet timing set as well .

Altho we used the 4 pos. method on a 785 lift cam dynamics roller , had no problems , -except traction.
