Sorry, real life has been extremely busy.... Work has been hell lately.... I get up before my kids are up, and I get home after they are in bed.. sigh....
I've been booked for installing a server a week until November.....
It wasn't until I got a PM that I noticed I've been gone for a few weeks.... Thanks for reminding me that I have a life....
Anyways updates on the rocker arms. I have more pics to post, but it seems that I still have a lack of storage space to post them up here.
Otherwise, I have no updates. My shop has politely declined to install them. they don't want to be responsible for blowing a valve on my new crate motor... That means that I have to find someone else to install them. A guy offered to install them for $60, but I dunno. He was talking about making 90degree marks on the harmonic balencer and getting to TDC on firing cyl 1 and then installing the arms finger tight. Rotating the crank 90 degrees and then installing to finger tight on firing cyl 2, etc. Seemed kinda hokey to me. If his mark on the HB was off by a 16th of an inch, then I have bent valves.
I'll be honest. I'm too scared to install them, or have them installed. I'm worried about valve float and a piston kissing a valve.
So for now they are sitting on my desk at work.
It was a nice idea, but I don't think they are going to get installed.
Anyone wanna buy some cheap?
