The plain (pallet) original rockers, not roller.
Does anyone know what the actual dimension is, and are there more than 1?
Shepard's book has nothing, I checked.
Any large blueprint drawings or diagrams I can translate from?

Thanks.

I have an old set in the garage I could check with a radius gage.

Excellent, thanks!
1 intake and 1 exhaust should do it - I suspect they're different (even with the same lift) because the exhaust arms are so much looonger.

It makes sence that the longer rockers would have a flatter pad vs the shorter rocker. What are you checkin for, just curious.

For the intake valve I know the following:
If you want it perfect, it depends on the lift. I had to grind mine with a smaller radius on the outer part of the tip to stay in appx center contact with the valve. (it was for a Crane R290 roller .7" valve-lift) I do not know the radius, though, but I would say it shifts towards the outer edge.
Thanks,
