[T3] Berg7, the valve geometry.

["Park, Keith J (CRD)" <parkkj@crd.ge.com>]

Well, Im on hold again... Big surprize!

I got out the adjustable pushrod (which is a pain in the ass to use when the pushrod tubes are in
place) and measured out an intake and exaust length and they only varied by 1/32 inch so I cut my
rods.  My first question, Im told that .060 shims should be used with the swivel feet adjusters, but
if it needs more then the pushrods need to be longer and once thier cut....

Well as you can imagine  I cut them and they were too short, mainly on the left head as since I went
through the head fiasco and had the left one swapped out for a FI T3 head with the bosses, now the
heads dont match.  So all the rods on the Left side are too short to acheive proper geometry even
with the extra .015 shims.

SO

What are peoples reccomendations or procedures?? Ive got more pushrods coming but youve only got one
shot at getting the right so I cant afford to blow it again. how close do they need to be?  how close
is close??

Ive got a couple days I need to catch up on customer repairs so Im interested on hearing comments,
this is all so frusterating!

Keith
