SBC Roller rockers Accuracy

Mark Yacavone · 02-25-2015, 11:13 PM

I have a cam with a few thou safety factor built into the lobe lift, so now I need rockers that are true 1.5 or at least check that way with near stock length push rods.
What brand in new ones, or I'd take some low mileage used ones (7/16 hole).
Thanks in advance

Mark,

Harland Sharp makes a very accurate SBC roller rocker.
Also, I believe T&D Machine is also making Stock Eliminator legal roller rockers.

I have been told that. Also told if you want a say a 1.46 you can get that too ..within a matter of a few days.
I like the sound of that..
.Anybody else...similar experience?

Mark,
Harland Sharp will work with you and build what you want. Call them and ask for Randy Jr.

Mark, talk to Tim Cole at Comp Cams. He had special rockers built specifically for Stock Eliminator, they're a true 1.5:1 ratio, they're fully rebuildable, and come with a set of ARP studs. They keep them on the shelf and ready to ship.

Mark,
I needed some the opposite way last year,so got a few sets in hoping they would be off,tried scorpion, and ones that Liberty engine parts sells,and they all were good on the ratio,I was surprised,the liberty ones I sell for about $175.00 alum or steel version,maybe PRW makes them

Harland Sharp will send you a single rocker that's exactly 1.5 (for example) as a checker. Based on that, they can alter the ratio for an entire set.

Worked for me. -Al
