Don’t forget to get some really good rocker shafts. Sometimes the ends break off.

I currently have the T&D FE rockers and shafts and they work really well so far. My previous engine had POP (precision oil pump) rockers and I liked them also. If you use T&D, you need to use the street rockers because the race rockers are a paired set up with modified mounting and oil through the pushrods which is not stock on an FE.

I use the Harland Sharp bushed version. If you do wind up getting them, make sure you ask for a washer under the adjustment nut. They have a tendency to loosen without it.

Some creative bracing inside a sturdy custom valve cover should help with that.

They do make end stands that support the area so that doesnt happen or reduces defelection

I'm sure Keith or Kuntz and company, or Vern could point folks in the rite direction for the rocker shaft stuff for the FE
