Rocker Stand Identification - OEM and Aftermarket
« on: September 24, 2023, 09:45:43 PM »
Fellas - I'm still cleaning out the garage.  Ran across a small box with my rocker arm stand bits and could use a bit of help with identification since it's been 10 or 12 years since I touched any of this.

The cast iron rocker stands aren't anything special, right?  Just regular OEM?

The billet aluminum ones should be from POP or maybe DSC Motorsport?  Look familiar to anyone?

Any ideas on what all this is worth?  I'm not planning on building an FE again anytime soon, so I'm not going to hang on to it.

The cast rocker stands are the strongest available. They provide very good support for the rocker shafts. Far better than the aluminum ones - factory or aftermarket. The split iron ones clamp the rocker shafts. The aluminum ones end up oval and allow the shaft to move up and down with time.
The factory 427's were the cast iron stands - should be worth something to someone.
