Who's rockers are these?

That rocker is not bushed. It is solid aluminum with a groove cut in the middle for oil flow. So you'll have relatively soft aluminum taking the load, not bronze.


The picture in post 14 sure looks like it has a bushing in it.

Doesn't matter. I'd run the rocker with no bushing long before I'd use a rocker with needle bearings in them.

And yes, I have done it, and will do it again.
