What happens here

Leonard demonstrates the functionality of the half-scale rocker arms, explaining how they are designed to accurately actuate the valves, ensuring the precise timing and lift required for engine operation. He confirms the mechanical integrity of the design before any aesthetic finishing is applied.

Goal: Demonstrate the functional mechanics of the half-scale rocker arms.

Tools and materials

  • Dial Indicator — Measuring valve lift and rocker arm movement
  • Half-Scale Rocker Arm Custom-made — Demonstrating valve actuation
