Rocker system
« on: March 21, 2017, 03:30:15 PM »
What rocker systems is there available.  My rockers had the
tips grinded by...Stevie Wounder. And the oilholes on the shaft
 turned down so the whole assembly is more or less junk
Its just a regular street engine comp 292S cam so i don't
need any fancy stuff

You might consider just some used stock adjustable rockers, or some non-adjustables with custom pushrod lengths.  The non-adjustables seem to be getting popular, even on solid cams...

Yes some used stock ones had been my choice. But i live in
Sweden and finding adjustable FE rockers here is not easy
 And shipping and all the fees to import a set is about
the same for a new set so....

Thanks for the offer FERoadster  I would prefere adjustable rockers with
the mechanical cam. I'm afraid i end up with 16 different pushrod length's.
 I just remembered to day i have another engine in the barn so i check
 that engine out to see what rockers that engine have

Lash caps are a possibility as a device for adjusting lash with non-adjustable rockers
