To me the T4 paulter rocker is junk, it doesn't have correct oiling IIRC. I know Jake was playing with them trying to make them work, don't know if he ever did.
Honestly the stock (modified) rocker works best, everything works correctly, never an issue, I have similar 2.6L T4, 78X102mm, engine in my'67 bug. I use the stock modified rocker with real porsche adjusters and I use T1 dual springs, 163/86b web cam, ceramic lifters, CrMo retainers, hardened keepers and Manton pushrods. |

it would be nice if somebody, somewhere made a decent rocker with a greater ratio.
and, Not to hijack, but are ceramic lifters available anywhere? |

l’m making a 1.6 chromoly rocker for my 3.1S.
l have a few random Pauter rockers from sets that have had a rocker break. The self oiling Pauters were junk. l broke 3 of them on Beth’s engine in 4 weeks. They can’t stand a roller cam at all! This post has been edited by Jake Raby: Sep 13 2018, 09:51 PM |

Nowhere.
You need to set geometry yourself for optimum performance. As you get to better parts and more power, getting the right tolerance built in is more important. Zach |
