Mine are about 1.3; equating to 0.520" lift. I had the blocks milled down. They are mighty, mighty close now. The side play was not an issue; you just have to play with the shims. The up/down is taxing on this style of rocker. I'll be using something else next time.

These scat rockers are doing my head in. How much did you have to mill off the rocker blocks? I took .080 off mine yesterday and bolted them up last night. The wipe pattern is still above centre. It is closer than it was, but still not where I want it. I also needed to clearance the rocker pedistal a tiny bit .
The ratio has been fairly true with 1.28.

It was close to 0.100", but it's been awhile and I can't remember.
