Stu, didn't you have a rebuilt? Your rocker arms should be good, so why
worry. The original kits included with the "T's" included a flat feeler
gage .019". If you rocker arms are worn (cupped) have them resurfaced. How
would you get a piece of wire into just the cupped are and not be effected
by the surrounding "high" spots?
