my car is currently at my buddies shop an hour away from me so soon as I get down there ill get more pictures and ill get the actual brand of rockers. They broke across the casting line. its not a straight clean break as you can see from the pick but it starts at the front of the casting line...

my heads were gone over by a reputable guy...there again not mentioning names. absolutely no binding whatsoever. everything was checked and gone over before they key was even turned the first time. Same rockers were in the engine for the 3 years ive had it now. Rockers I was sold from him were I...

Big thing now is which rockers to go with this time around?

I kinda feel bad about blaming the lifter. when I took the valve cover off I played with the lifters and that one had a lot of play so thats what I figured it was. Last night I actually took off my Rocker girdle as well and thats when I could see the rocker was cocked. Then I felt around and...

hadnt really dug into the engine yet. the broken piece is MIA so im hoping it didnt fall in with my cam. Around the stud area I was seeing metal dust/chips so im gunna have to tear it down and clean. im just hoping nothing else is damaged. Definately wouldnt recommend those for anything.

well it wasnt a lifter after all! it was a junk *** rocker!

Been running my setup for 3 years (~8000miles) mixed highway and around town.

Running Hughes 1129 dual valve spring 145# @ installed height, 358#@ .550, 375#@ .600 lift I’m somewhere in between

I’m running a MAGNUM based 408. So yes I’m running a spider plate. My lifters I have now are not link barred. Thank you yes me as well. It’s frustrating to me that all these cam/lifter company’s quality is going down the shitter. I won’t even look at a flat tap setup anymore unless I direly...

It’s a 408 magnum, EQ heads modified by B3 Racing, Howard’s .565 lift cam, roller rockers purchased from B3, rocker girdle etc etc not stock by any means. That’s why I opted for the Performance hyd roller lifters by a well know company. Been in the car 2 years maybe have 8000 miles on them...

Drop in magnum (without bar). I couldn’t find a set of magnum style solids either. All solids I’ve found were the retrofit

I’m not going to say a brand but they were a performance hyd roller. The faulty one collapsed.

Any company out there that make an actual quality lifter anymore? I have had a set of brand name hyd. roller lifters in my car for 2 years and yesterday during a car cruise one desired to give up on me 2hrs away from home. These were supposed to be “performance” lifters. I’m kind of over the...

One down! One to go!

Well here is my jig! Just finished it so not sure if it will work or not. I used 3/8 ID standoffs so I'll need to find bushings that are 5/16 ID to 3/8 OD so I can drill it to tap the holes for a 3/8 bolt.

Wish someone would repop the aluminum wire holders. I'm trying to see if I can find a Holley Street Dominator intake. It's a pretty close look with the added performance and weight deduction

I'm really debating on making a drill jig for the LA intake on mag heads. Still debating

Pretty rare piece you got there!

Which cam would you reccomend?

Does anyone make the ribbed wire holders?

Any more pics of the engine?

Very Nice! I'm not looking for 100% clone, just "close"

So I throwing around the idea of building a 5.2 magnum for my 65 valiant. I have a 273 from a 1967 barracuda I'd like to use but like the idea of a roller cam. I have a 4V intake from a 70 340 I'll be using. Question is should I drill my mag heads for the LA intake or buy a set of Chinese EQ...

I still need to send the block to the machine shop. I deffinately want to run a roller cam so it's a toss up between the mag block I have or get a roller pre mag block. The plus of the mag are heads. I know they are not budget friendly but was also considering Hughes roller rockers. The...

Only thing I'm worried about is losing torque with the wider lsa. I'll need the torque to get the sled moving then the HP to keep it going

I'll give you alittle run down of what I'm doing. Roughly 10 years ago I built an 87 D150 to sled pull, yes 2wd. A few years later I swapped in a 4x4 chassis and pulled in the SB street class with a mild 400. At that time the C.I. rules (412ci) allowed me to use my BB. Since then the class...

Yessir! I have a cloyes double roller in my hoard. Lol

Thanks buddy. I really appreciate your input!
