Broken rocker

[wmerrell]

One on the rockers broke off the the rocker shaft.
They were not stock rockers, some aftermarket type installed during an engine rebuild.
Should T & D rocker set up be installed?
If so which ones and is there any modification to the heads required for fitment?

Are there shims under the shaft?
Which springs?

The aftermarket rockers and shafts were similar to the stock set up. The aftermarket shafts didn't have any shims underneath.

Bill,
Don't know what you really have going on but yes T&D's would be a great choice. Don't know what your cam is but if stock you could bump it up alittle with 1:60 ratio rockers. You would also have to clearance the side of the pedastals on the heads like in this pic.

Hi Mike,
The heads are iron ported Champions. From the Champion website pictures they look like they have been clearanced. I will call Jimmy at Champion tomorrow to confirm.
Thanks,
Bill
