RE: Oh my fing god finially, plus a question
ORIGINAL: woodsy
Your looking for rollout between .050-.060 thousandths wide, meaning once you color the top of the valvestem with a black marker and run that rocker through 2 full cycles, the width of the mark left by the roller tip should be less than .060 thousandths of an inch. If the rocker is centered but the rollout is .100 wide, thats no good, if the roller tip seems to be a tad forward or a tad behind the center but rollout is .060 or less, thats your target. 6.2 seems awefully short, especially on a stud mount head

RE: Oh my fing god finially, plus a question
sorry im so damn ignorant about this, but yeah, its a little above center, and the mark is a little more than 1/16 of an inch, like, barely, almost 1/16
sorry 16ths is as low as i can go... anyone know if thats good or not?
okay, so 1/16 is .0625, this is too wide, right, what do i need, shorter or longer?
