273 Adjustable Rockers with Hydraulic Lifters??

FYI, for all you motor heads. Something caught my eye reading this thread . Someone stated that one turn on a 24 TPI bolt/screw is .040?? In machine shop school many years ago my instructor told me "Remember this, .6495 divided by TPI equals the distance traveled along the axis of the bolt/screw in one revolution". This is a constant for SAE 60 degree "V" threads. So a 24 TPI fastener will travel .027" along it's axis in one revolution.
I memorized this "constant" 40 years ago and have used a bizilion times and you'd be amazed how someone responds when they're working a car and turning a bolt a say out loud, "I wonder how much this bolt moves in one revolution". Then I would say (as if I were a genius), ".6495 divided by the number of threads!!". The person would say, how do you know that?? I would say, it's a constant, you wanna bet?? I've won more money that way LOL!!!!

Don't forget this and you can be RICH!!!!
