FE Technical Forum / Harland Sharp rocker arms
« on: March 31, 2019, 07:45:55 PM »
I am looking at buying a set of Harland Sharp rocker arms to replace the failing original adjustable ford rocker arms. The engine is a 482cui, edelbrock heads, hydraulic roller cam with .600 lift. I am already using the Precision Oil Pumps heavy duty shafts and their end supports, and have already had a set of custom push rods made to suit the current setup. I am hoping that I can just replace the rocker arms and keep on using everything else. I am hoping that someone can confirm that changing the rocker arms from original to Harland Sharps will not require a change in push rod length.

Thanks in advance

Warning - Buyer Beware / Sideoiler Garage Aluminium Block
« on: December 13, 2017, 07:52:20 AM »
Hi fellow FE fans, I would like to put a call out for some assistance. In April of this year (2017), we ordered a new Sideoiler Garage aluminium block directly from Tim Mcloughlin on the understanding it was ready for dispatch by the end of the week. Unfortunately the block was never dispatched and after several weeks of limited communication it turned out that all the blocks recently cast were defective. At our request and on the basis of being unable to supply, Tim agreed to return our funds. Unfortunately it is now December and we are yet to see our monies returned. The last promise was made in September which confirmed the refund by the end of October. We have been sympathetic to the casting faults and I understand several batches after the April castings have also proven to be defective, but I think we have suffered enough! Tim is now proving to be impossible to contact. At least weekly i call and leave messages, send text messages and email, however the vast majority are ignored. I have had no contact since September. Any advice or suggestions on how I might be able to contact Tim in the hope we can bring this disaster to a satisfactory end?
