Norm (and others),
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Over the years I've been selling this tool, I've had 2 other customers who experienced this problem - tool post V-cut will not engage on the rib of the rocker arm. Porsche, like other engine manufacturers, probably contracts with several vendors that supply rocker arm castings. I'm sure that this cast rib dimension is not held to a tight dimensional tolerance, thus probably varies depending on what company furnishes the rocker arm. When I designed the tool I was not aware of this variable. I used a rocker from a 3.2 L engine for my design template.
If any purchaser of this tool has this issue, please let me know and I will furnish another tool post no charge, with a wider V-cut. Also, if you should ever need a spare part or instruction sheet, just let me know. I want those that purchase this tool to be totally satisfied and I'll do my best to make this happen. My e-mail address is given on the instructions or you may contact me through Pelican.
I apologize to those that have encountered difficulty or problems with this tool. Please know that I will work with you to remedy the defect.
Dave
