looks like the rocker arm is hiked up you need to take the nuts off and readjust so they sit flat on the valve

To be honest I'm not sure, when I ordered I did it over the phone and said I wanted the big valve head for my engine. Is there a defining mark or something I could look at to tell?

Could you explain more what you mean by hiked up? I'm just confused because as its installed I can put the rocker on the valve, it's just when it rolls back in picks up maybe .25-.5 an inch almost, looks like if the engine could run like this it would have horrible tapping from the rockers getting thrown back And forth

So sounds like stock I had 69mm valves and now this new head is 64mm valves, cause when I just visually look at them from the side the stock head has the valve springs sticking out of it a lot more than the new head. Does this sound like 64 vs 69 valve problem?

even if i cancell the order, I won't see my 450+ bucks for another couple of weeks. The only reason i'm this patient is because my scoot is running. This is for an upgrade.

If customs seized a container and is being held by customs scrappies hands are tied . You can't fault him for that . I can buy an engine and rebuild it with a BBK and resell it . It would take me a week to 10 days to get the engine then a day or so to do the work , then reship . If there is a problem with shipping its not my fault .

This I realize, but it took them a week to tell me it was on hold.When i spoke to shelly on the 20'th, she said they just found out that morning. The ship was supposed to be there on the 14'th It seems to me , that if i am expecting an inmportant shipment, I would keep track of it. How is it that 6 days go by, and you don't know customs is holding it. Besides, I was told it would be about a week ( days ago. Now she tells another on Friday it would be a week to 2 weeks. Meanwhile I have no motor,carb, and plug, and no 500.00. Can you blame me for being concerned?
