Elgin part number for the 7/16 rocker arms is R-1840.The rocker arm ball isn't included and the part number for the rocker arm ball is RM-1000. Don't try and use a big block ball. It won't fit down in the arm. 7/16" screw in studs and poly locks are everyplace . I've had to do other things on other engines to make stuff right such as using different length push rods on some valves. Good luck on your project.I'm in the middle of this on a 327 I'm doing for my Chevelle. Short block's done, I'm assembling and sorting out the heads and the valve train,now its time to measure lobe lift and compare it to total lift. One more thing to do.

Well at least the lowly AMC came with 1.6 rockers and .903" lifters...

Some of the latest Spintron "best results" have been with reduced ratio rockers and cam lobes that are larger diameter and shaped quite a bit different than what was once thought good. Less deflection, less spring pressure, less failure, sometimes more power!
