Rebuilding the motor for my '74 Creamsicle. (Overheated it at the track, threw a rod bearing, yes, very stupid.)
My rocker arms shafts are all still within factory spec but the I.D.'s on the rocker arms are past spec, but still within the factory wear limit. I could reuse them but would prefer to get replacements. But I'm having trouble finding a source for any new or refurbished ones. This will remain a street car motor so didn't feel the need to go to fancy billet rollers like Pauter. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Andrew B. |

QUOTE(Dave_Darling @ May 5 2022, 06:50 PM)  Doesn't Bontempi have about a zillion of them? --DD Yes, I'm sure, but I was looking for new. I have 3 other sets of valve train in my parts store too, but they're all in about the same shape as this motor - ok, but verging toward the outside of the factory spec. I was hoping to find something that was less worn. Andrew |
