Any interest in 92+ rocker shaft hold downs

[Lotashelbys]

Adam, how difficult would it be to get a set with an oversize width, say +0.030" or +0.040" ? Reason i ask is i have a set of rockers that were gouged 0.015-0.020" deep by the old 91 style retainers on an engine i pulled from a scrapper. I was thinking of having the rockers machined flat again (my brother is a machinist) but i would then need wider retainers. Not sure if its worth going this route or not, I may just look for a replacement set of rockers but i thought i'd ask.

Thanks and great work!

Heres what I do to fix the side load wear on the 91 rockers.....

I could do that but like the others have said you may be better off getting some spacer/washers to take up the extra space.

From the looks of it I will only be able to wrap them around the rocker shaft an extra .125" before they starts getting close to the head.

I can do some measurements if you'd like and take some pics with them on a head!

Thanks! But no need to. I have a full set on my car that I took a look/measurements off of.

OK,

[lengel]

Ok guys looks like some of you guys want these. So I will be setting up a group buy in the next few day.


Thanks Adam

You can count me in. It looks like the head is coming off my 91 in order to replace the head gasket. I might as well get some more life from the rockers while I'm at it.

I finished replacing the head gasket on the R/T and the rockers looked brand new. I'm going to hold off on this purchase.

I'm in for a set as well. Please keep me in mind when this group purchase starts to come together as I don't get on the board that frequently.

I'm in for a set

Whoa forgot about this thread lol! Ok count me in for a set if the group buy goes. I'll probably do the washer fix as a few mentioned, thanks!

[iTurbo]

Just wondering if this was proceeding? No rush here though to be quite honest. I am the slowest project coordinator ever but may be interested in a few sets.

[lengel]

Yeah I will be doing these in the near future. I just want to get some other things done before I start these.

[iTurbo]

Sounds good.

[jckrieger]

I took a closer look at my rockers when I installed the Ti spring retainers and it looks like I'm in for a set. A few of my rockers look like they've been experiencing some side load.

[shellboy]

i want a set too!

Did you ever set up a group buy that I missed?

What's it cost to get a set done?

[daver]

Adam: any update on this?

[shellboy]
