The geometry IS changed ! the rocker on the pusrod side is 1/16 higher than it was before... and moves to a position 1/16 higher when the cam pushes it up. 1/16 no big deal, more ... ? But I'm sure i

Rick, I will certainly check the references you kindly provided. Interesting comments on my original post. I still think that within "normal" limits that milling the head won't change the geometry. B

The overall geometry of the actions of the valve train must be affected, if the head is skimmed. Adjusting the rocker adjuster-screw up will NOT compensate for it, as the push rod is still the same l

Shims go under the center two posts the outer two do not have them. Don't know the thickness since they are under the posts. Chris

Well, this may not apply, but when skimming the head or the block to get a little more compression, you effectively move the rocker shaft closer to the cam. This messes up the desired pushrod geometr

Hate to jump in a criticize one of Mr. Allen's learned contributions but I just gotta........ If your head were machined a lot (say 1/16" or more), shims under all four pedestals would restore the or

The 'gaskets' are infact ten-thou shims, often placed there to make up for any head skimming that may have been done. The .010" lifts the whole set of rockers, and is supposed to put the rocker-arms

Thanks to all for the assistance on my shim question. My recollection is there were two but I could not remember from which two posts. They were thin about .010". The engine is original, I have owned
