Yella Terra wipe pattern?
Guys, im setting up my new rockers with the heads off the car and have run into a bit of a issue. Is it normal to have un-even wipe patterns? With both rockers installed with no shim the exhaust has a perfect center wipe, while the intake wipe is slightly towards the back of stem? with the shim they are both towards the back? Has anyone had issues with this?
Ive set them up using the theories in this thread and they are being used on a AFR head https://ls1tech.com/forums/generation-iii-internal-engine/970338-would-yella-terra-worth.html

I just set up my 205's about a month ago. I used a .062" thick washer from Loews. The ID was 3/8"
I took a mic with me and measured each one to ensure they were within .001". My wipe was not the same from intake to exhaust, you just split the differance. On another note, I used 7.500 pushrods. I think you'll find that is what is needed. If you have any more questions on this setup, send me a message.

I used a dry erase marker rather then a permanent ink marker; it made it much easier. I ended up with 0.090 spacers to get a narrow centered wipe pattern. I got the shims from McMaster Carr.
