Hello-
BTW, it it possible to adjust the geometry of 36HP (based) rockers? I suspect practice of shimming won't work as well with a curved saddle unless you have something shaped like a caster shim.
Cheers,
Paul

Only by pushrod length. I am going to see if there is a way they can be shimmed when they arrive here.

they look very good!
question:
are the 1.4 on the same shaft as the 1.25? looks like the same offset on the pic.

Hello-
Is there anyone out there who's run these yet?  While they're a great addition to my parts pile, I would like to hear how they fit and perform.
Cheers,
Paul

Fit is spot on with my WW Okrasa heads . Plenty of clearance for the push rods. And fit nicely in saddles/studs of the heads. I am a couple weeks away from a test run though.
