Michael,
There is only one thing you have to watch for with the dog bones and spider
arrangement. That is to be sure that the spider bolts in the valley are not
so long as to interfere with the cam shaft bushings. Most machine shops
should know how deep to make the holes, but it never hurts to be sure.
I have some extra dog bones and extra spiders in case your friend wants me
to mail some to him. They are light enough that the postage would be
unimportant.
I also have extra roller lifters, but cannot vouch for the condition though
I know some people disassemble and clean them. Those are heavier so I would
want to be reimbursed for postage if he wants a set.
HTH,
A. C. Tynes
