[Tigers] rocker arm clearance

[Sandy Ganz]

I think the shaft rockers are Ok, I have a set of T&D rockers and they will
almost fit under a stock set of valve covers with the Canfield heads I have
(not sure if rails are raised). The areas that might be problematic is the
ends of the head where the rocker shafts stick out a bit further then stock
style and that is the area where they hit on my testing with chrome stock Ford
style where the ends of the valve cover are more tapered then the cast
aluminum or fabricated style. Also check the heads, some aftermarket heads
have raised valve cover rails, and rasied (slightly) exhaust ports, not sure
if the VJ's do or not in either area.

Howdy gang,

I'm looking at a potential engine
for my Tiger and it has Victor Jr. heads
with Probe shaft rocker arms.  Does
anyone know if these rocker arms stick
up too high to fit in a Tiger without
modifying the firewall.

Thanks,
Bob
