Subject:Gowesty Lash Cap Set for Valve Adjusters?
From:Neil N
Date:Mon, 15 Dec 2014 10:41:37 -0800

Hi all.

I recall Dennis Haynes' comment on the WBX valve adjusting screw wear
and how it can affect adjusting the valves.

Have others used these?  (link to gowesty page):

Has anyone found any long term issues with these caps and-or the rocker arm shim
effectively reducing the length of mount studs?

Thanks,

Neil.
