All Small Six To Build a 200 or 250?

Yes, the rockers will need to be shimmed to get the correct rocker geometry.

Get the cam and add .050" to the valve lift for clearance is a good plan.
You will also need the cam specs to get the correct valve springs.

Do the valve stems measure .343"?

Excellent. Seems like I'm on the right path then. Do they sell rocker shims or just use hardened washers?

Yup. Then that will allow me to size the valves appropriately.

Yup, they're the 11/32 ones.

Check out the TKX transmission. It has a torque rating of 600 ft.lb., significantly higher than a T-5.

The TKX is also smaller than the TKO, so it may fit in your application.

Finally got around to measuring the bore on the E1xx 200..... GREAT NEWS ITS FACTORY BORE!!!

I'll update again when I disassemble and take it to the shop.

update?

I was delayed by life for a bit but I am back in the planning stages. There has been a new development that may have me using a 250 crossflow instead. Will update when decision has been made.
