Ordered my head stud kit along with 1.5.1 roller rockers , spacer kit for rockers , thrust washer for primary gear and 8 performance pushrods

[minilee94]

Fitted my head studs today just Gota get hold of some rocker posts then I can fit the rockers and set them up

Done my primary gear end float again now after fitting new thrust washer I used to be able to get an 8thou in there now changed to a 118 to 120 thrust washer and now I can get a 5 thou in there

[minilee94]

Update spent a few hours shimming and fitting the rockers to find the end of the rocker shaft has not been machined correct total waste of a day

[minilee94]

Ideally it would be nice for Minispares to send me a new shaft then I can slide all the rockers straight into new shaft then I can send back old shaft

This is gonna be mental once it's done!
