I went with the CB dual weight for my Bus, I'm going to use CB solid shaft stock rockers, but went with Thorsten Pieper valve adjusters for when my build starts
@VWBaja Күн бұрын
The Thorsten adjusters look like better quality. I am ditching the ball adjusters I got. 💩 they just seem cheap to me, and I don't like the possible failure point.
@OwhyeeVdub 2 күн бұрын
I have a set of those ball adjusters i haven't used yet. Lol, now im going to check them with a magnet.

I like to use a cago strap over the 1-2 side and block under the 3-4 side to keep the engine in place when i torque it down. Really like this build series your doing here.

Oh, yep, when I got this new 26mm pump I watched the EZGZ vids (and others) and I have port matched the oil holes to the case and radiused the pump ports internally. She should be all set. The cover plate getting blocked off was a surprise though... thought that would match the pump better out of the box (it is a kit). I could have done more to that cover but didn't want to grind on her too much.
