Well, sorry to 428 Galaxie to sidetrack the thread... It's been some years since I visited there but I do remember the winter weather and snow did NOT slow down the mining operations!  Iron ore if I recall.

Yes Iron  They now have to move the whole
Town and  railroad because the ground is
 cracking and the town risks to go down
 in the mine :o I think they have started allready

Visited Mommas krog, Got drunk and had a fist
fight? with the locals When you was there? ;D

My 66 Fairlane came from Kiruna

428 Galaxie - suggest you consult one of the builders who regularly contribute to the forum; Blair Patrick (Capt. Cobra Jet), Brett Lykins, and Barry R.  They can offer refurbished OEM rockers, and street or race aftermarket options.  Their advise is invaluable too.  I also believe you get what you pay for.  Highly recommend Jay's book "The Great FE Intake Comparo", and Barry's book "How to Build Max Performance FE Engines".

Heo - Sorry to hear one of those towns is having to move!  I don't mind an adult beverage after business is done, but no fights!  I prefer a low profile, especially when in someone else's country  ;D

Get what you mean but i think td rockers would be bit overkill for me.Was thinking of hard chroming current shafts and honing rockers 0.2mm bigger but tossed that idea.
If somebody really wants sell me a set or two i dont mind few spares tight factory rockers im up for it.
Remember i live other side of the pond.

Are these too cheap like wise prw speedmaster etc.Looking for rockersr mid 550 lift maybe 220 050 duration.

Second question is are those sealed power oil pumps in level with melling or not

The Sealed Power pump is smaller than the Melling.

Thanks its bit hard to get all the right parts at one place at here. but ill pass that sealed power pump.Brent has helped alot with all hard parts but trying to gather rest of the usual stuff.
Was thinking that the sealed power pump would be re labelled melling pump but thats not the case.
ILL get melling pump when ill get to that.
