I was asking, because I've seen where guys run a standard bbc rocker stud, say from a GM head, and transfer it to an aftermarket head. Not only are the threaded base portions shorter, the effective stud length, is shorter as well. So, when you have longer intake valves with an aftermarket head, you may find the set screw is sunk way down in the lock, and there is minimal thread engagement on the stud as well. I didnt say you had incorrect parts, was just asking what you had there.

I like you , if you're right, be humble, if not .. well its not a competition. Many of of us don't know the people offering advice.
Bb , you obviously know a lot as well, and post a bunch of excellent information, but everything including this post is no more than than the posters experience or opinion, but thats why we are all here, to get facts and opinions.

It's not bad information if you didn't have so much diarrhea between you ears you could probably look at a Pro 1 head and say (yeah I could see the potential for a failure). But I don't see that happening. i have to ask Mike why do you always do this? Does it give you some sense of superiority or something? What's the deal. Take pleasure in running people off? What's the deal really?

The head has issues. It's not a myth. When you use a rocker arm the geometry is always wrong that's why there is a pattern/ sweep. What's your point? You walk on water. Have a magic wand you can wave over a valve train and it becomes perfect. Not sure what you are getting at. I on the other hand was simply trying to give the OP I different idea than what was posted by others as what to look for.
The Dart pro 1 head was designed to be a light weight head. They come in around 29lbs each. There race series come in around 45lbs each. Where did all the weight go. Maybe someone used there magical wand combined with a sprinkle of pixie dust. I don't think advising the OP to take a look at the stud bosses is bad advice. If you feel as though it's not a good idea to pay attention to this area of a cylinder head then don't pay attention to it. I've seen problems with intake and exhaust bosses with these heads. Was it a geometry issue? There is always a geometry issue its the nature of the beast and BBC's have the worst of them all. I've even seen a few sets of Pro 1's where alot of extra effort was put into the stud bosses to try and combat issues before they happen.
