Check Your Rockers!

[RacinDuallie]

For you guys that are setting the lash on your valves check your rockers- check these pics out and look at what I discovered.....:bang :aiwebs_029:

This design needs some improvement.:dead-horse-fast2:

So if you are checking the valve lash- I suggest to fully remove and disassemble your rockers for inspection. Several of these rockers had binding going on and gouging of the hardened material.......

Holy crap thats ugly! Good thing you caught that now dude! That would've been bad goin' down the 1/4 mile......

 

[RacinDuallie]

It'd be uglier if this caused a valve to be hung open at the wrong time:aiwebs_029: :badidea: ......

This in the race bullet Jeff?

 

[RacinDuallie]

Well yes and no. These were from when I was racin' the duallie, and the duallie is my street truck- so for those of you that are heavily bombed check into this....

For the racer I am looking at something different.......

a 12v head solves that problem

Maybe, maybe not..... Besides I'm interested in airflow, and am not interested in a lesser flowing head. . . . .

When I pulled the head on mine about a year ago for headgasket replacement I checked mine, they looked nothing like that thankfully.
