Rhino Feet
Hi all.

If you are going to install these these you will have to check that the rocker geometry is correct, you will find the swivle feet are longer then the
factory adjusters, some times you have to grind the under side of the rocker arm so the adjuster can screw in further, the out come of this is that at
half the valve lift the adjuster should have the same center line as the valve, some times you have to use a different lenght push rod as well as
shimming the rocket post. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgTqrpApwg8 http://www.superbeetles.com/performance101/aug.htm
