Hi Mates
We have discussed this previously, debating whteher the "long" push rods Moss
sells would work in my rebuilt XPAG engine with the Crane cam and the machined
head.
The debate is over. The rocker arm assembly came back from Rocker Arm
Specialists and when we installed in the push rods were too long.
I immediately cell-phoned Moss at 6pm central time. They had no techs available
then. The order taker said they no longer have the short push rods. They come
up on the computer as "looking for a manufacturer." Of course, since the long
push rods are three times the price, they may not be looking too hard. Oh,
well.
So as I was told earlier, I need to have the "long" push rods I bought machined
down to size. What I am looking for is specifuics. How does the machine shop
take the long rods apart so they can macvhine them? They may know the answer at
the shop, but sometimes you just get a blank look as they are not used to doing
such work every day. Also, I'm assuming the measurement listed in a note in the
Moss catalog is the one to use.
Any advice will be appreciated.
