1.7 Clearanced Rocker sets.
Thank You to everyone that bought the original group of parts, the second group of parts and to those that sent their own rockers for modification. I did all the sets I had, So now you can send me your rockers for modification. If your interested let me know. You'll have to supply your own good usable cores These rockers have been clearanced for the adjustable swivel rocker feet, they are 0.391 (+/- .005) thick at the adjuster pad (Clearanced 0.100 inch). I have four sets that is all, I made this tooling for my own build and did a couple sets for a couple of others. I am offering these at 140.00 dollars a set plus shipping. I had a Radiused Carbide cutter made to not put sharp cuts into the rocker. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1013.photobucket.com-14690-1396363908.1.jpg) The height was set and the tooling was used to cut each rocker to the same thickness. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1013.photobucket.com-14690-1396363908.2.jpg) After cutting the rocker was ground and polished to relieve stress risers at the forge line. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1013.photobucket.com-14690-1396363909.3.jpg) Here is a close up of 4 of the 1.7 rockers (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1013.photobucket.com-14690-1396363909.4.jpg) The 140.00 dollar price + shipping, Includes 1 set of clearanced rockers and stock rocker stands. Each set of rockers was originally from the same engine, so these rocker sets are not mashed together but lived together as an original engine set. There are no shafts or or spring type spacers because if you are going to use swivel feet adjusters you are going to use solid spacers and new shafts, and the larger rocker studs. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i1013.photobucket.com-14690-1396363909.5.jpg) Since I have no idea what you are doing with these camshaft/spring rate etc. these parts are sold with no warranty.

Beautiful work John!
I'll be curious to know how many you can do before the carbide has to be sharpened. That is some damn tough material! |

Those are very well machined, and that is an excellent way to fixture the arm in place while machining.. How come I never thought of that... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Beautiful work John! I'll be curious to know how many you can do before the carbide has to be sharpened. That is some damn tough material! Len, The tooling is still sharp enough I would think for two to three more sets, so that would make it six to seven sets, The material did not like plunging at all, but the method of coming in from the side was very forgiving. Probably would increase the total before sharpening the tooling to eight sets. Yes the material is Very damn tough! |

As of this evening I have one set left, and someone is sending a set of their own rockers for me to clearance.
Thank you everyone that has shown an interest in these. I am really proud of the way that they came out. The charge that I came up with for clearancing a set sent to me is 90.00 plus shipping both ways. |

John, pm'd you earlier I am in for a set if still available I have a set with your name on them, PM works but the best contact is still through my BellCobraIV@AOL.com address. For everyone else that may be interested another person is sending me a set to do for them, so I will be taking in sets of rockers that are clean and undamaged in the area where the pushrod rides. |

Len, The tooling did nine sets without issue, I can do one more set that is on it's way to the shop now, Then just to be safe the tooling will be out to be sharpened, no chips or disfigurement, just worn to the point of starting to be dull. |
