See detailed explanations in the extended entry at the end of the post. Download the camshaft assembly, the valves and the rocker finger assembly. Thank you for reading about this build and stay tuned for the next post which will detail the calculation of the camshaft phase angles and the mating of the components that go inside the cylinder heads.
