FE Technical Forum / Rocker arm to shaft clearance spec ???
« on: June 23, 2013, 09:56:42 PM »
I have to hone out my Dove/Comp rocker arms for clearance.Most of them are tight at .0005 to .001 clearance.I am fitting them to a nice set of H/S heavy duty shafts.They measure identical to each other....I would imagine the rockers will expand some what on the thick shafts....
I was thinking around .002 clearance but am interested in thoughts and opinions..
Engine is solid lifter 270S and no crazy valve spring pressures..
They will be honed on a machine for trueness and I have a ($$$$)Bower 3 finger measureing device that will read to 5 decimal points...
