Hi you all,
Is there a way to calculate the exact amount of the skimmed material from head gasket surface. Mine has been refreshed to barely clear the composite markings left from the gasket. Upon installation with new pushrods and mushrooms rockers adjusters from Andover, I'm not satisfied with the rocker clerance issue.
I have read many years ago that machining down the head, would require shorter pushrods???At what measurement of removed material does it apply? Mine is a RH10/850 serial 316801, that has never been machined down, except for the refreshment stated above.
I'm considering to retrofit the standard 06-7546AK rockers adjusters if mushrooms adjusters keeps giving me clearance problems, unless you could propose me a solution.
Finally, what is the appropriate method to check valve springs for coilbound? What tool and procedure to perform this test?
Thank you for your precious advices to help us keeping these old machines on the road.
