David,
I am not sure I understand.
If one measures clearance between the valve stem and the rocker pad then why
should this clearance measurement be different for a 1.5:1 rocker.
It does vary with different cam profiles, and I guess if you are using 1.5
rockers then the likelyhood is that it is a non-standard cam as well.
I did say I was quoting on a normal set up.
