Found it! Wasn't in the black hole after all.
« on: October 09, 2019, 12:43:59 PM »
 I was searching for a rocker stand height gauge for my race car. I recently discovered my heads aren't repairable so I ordered new ones, I'll need the gauge to set up the rocker arm stand height on the new heads. Anyway, I looked all day before checking on the internet to remind myself what it looks like.
 Guess what? It looks EXACTLY like the "750 float gauge" I recently discovered in my racecar toolbox and put with my Honda tools. As a matter of fact, it even says 750 on it to determine what cam lift range it's designed for. Whoda thunkit?

 It's funny, these T&D shaft rockers are a lot like sohc4's except they're for an underhead cam and get oiled through the pushrod.
