I used this McLeod clutch alignment tool from Summit a few months ago. Snug fit but worked fine. FE, TKO, McLeod clutch

What were you posting on the local club board about having to take your valves apart or something?

Was bored.
I finally got the engine back in the car after the rebuild from the failed #5 main bearing (remember that thread?). After cam break-in I had to put the inner springs in and was looking to borrow a valve spring compressor that worked with shaft mounted rockers. I learned that the lever style typically used for stud mounted rockers has a slightly rounded area on top where the lever bends and is designed to work with rocker shafts.

Yes, I remembered that something had happened... but it was soooooo long ago that I couldn't remember what. I figured your car had just been over at Scott's house for the past year or two again.

What size of the bushing/bearing did you use ?
Think I'll try a bearing.
I need to know the bearing size to buy the correct tool.

A "self-aligning" TOB is better for you.
