I've looked through all my Sprint manuals but can't find any specs. for the cam followers. I have a head that probably needs the follower bores machined. Does anyone have the dims. for the bores and the clearance required? I see Rimmers do standard, +0.010" & +0.020" followers.
The worst follower (that was rocking side to side) measures:-
Top - 1.3102"
Mid - 1.3015"
Bot - 1.3096"
As you can see, the middle dim. is almost 0.009" down on the top & bottom dims..
Also, does anyone have a new standard follower they can measure for me please.
thanks Martin

Re: Sprint Cam Followers
Thanks for the info.. Where did you find it?
So the bores are approx. 0.0008" bigger than the followers. That does seem similar to clearances I got from Tony (migwielder).
