is it as simple as using a #2 used inlet rocker arm to replace a broken #2 inlet

rocker arm?

thank you

Given the rockers are from the same vintage, they're all the same. Make sure the valve adjuster screw holes are the same.

thank you

any idea what I did wrong in breaking the arm?

my guess is that the #2 intake valve is stuck so I am going to take the heads off.

where would I purchase the "proprietary valve spring compressor" ??

or is there an alternative?


tks

randal

never mind, found one.

If the head is off, i take springs appart with a drill press, a socket with the side cut out then i make a wedge to go under the valve and square it up with shim stock.
but thats me.

tks for the info..


the screw holes are the same, just the screws are different.. one from the extra

engine is longer with a swivel head... I changed those 2 with the original 2 screws

so all are the same length. why the different screws? both 1.7L 1973.


tks colingreene for the tip.

Swivel is aftermarket or from 911. Need spacers behind rocker mounts for those.
I use them with no problems

I'm planning to use those 6cylinder adjusters, do you have to have longer push tubes if you shim the rocker mounts? or with the added lenth and shim it takes care of that ?
