Dial indicator at valve fully closed : 0.8340
Dial indicator at valve full lift : 0.3055
Total lift is 0.8340-0.3055 = 0.5285
Lift of my cam is 0.575 @ 1.5 rockers (86b)
Doing the math, the lift of the lobe is 0.3833
Using 0.5285/0.3833, the lift on MY rockers gives a ratio of 1.38 using my Scat 1.25's. That works out, since that's what they really measure.
So.. half lift = 0.3055 + (0.5285/2) = 0.5698
When I rotate to that point, my adjuster is perpendicular, using no shims and a 0.080 lash cap.
Since the rocker has a radius tip, should I be using the lower adjuster cup, or do I need to go about doing it using the shaft to rocker tip angle, etc? Are these engineered so that if you don't use rocker shims, you can adjust by the angle of the adjuster? Because if I can use the adjuster, I am done and all is well with the world.
