Terry, No one knows that more than me and I hate that it has come to this. All my stump pullers still use 130 seat and 330 open, the extra rpm these spring pressures allow are no advantage to me. On the other hand if I don't play by the new rediculous rules the L88 would be left way behind.--------Danny

Those $279 Crane Gold rockers for Stock don't sound so bad against a $900 set of stamped rockers now do they?

The rule book says rocker arms can not be modified. I asked Wesley if I could modify mine so they wouldn't split and he said "no".

Does this also mean you can't open the slot up to accept larger studs?

Travis cant answer he is caught in the middle. The 502 rockers are not something new, they have been around for at least 5 years. You cant get the old long slots anymore, people have been refining the slots for years too. Cleaning the slot also cuts down on the breakage and cleaning the oil hole dose too. Clark's rockers address those problems and have been thru tech many times on diff engines both 396 & 427, Arnold Greene also has the same setup.

This is beginning to sound like IHRA has the better idea and cheaper to.
