273 adjustable rockers to stamped.

[Davecuda]

So I picked up a 1967 273 that now has a hydraulic cam and original adjustable rocker. I know from experience that I suck at adjusting valves, so basically just want to set it and forget it. The cam is a mild Lunati. I have a set of stamped rockers and pushrods left over from a 360. Looking to find out if it will be a straight swap or if I need different length pushrods. Thanks!

Does that Lunati have hydraulic lifters on it now? Then set the preload and forget it, it's a hard system to beat.

If the Lunati has solids, you are more or less stuck with what you have.

It should be a straight swap pushrods and rocker assy's. Make sure the oiling holes in the shafts are indexed properly.

None of us here can really answer that. To get it right, you're going to have to get a checking pushrod, adjust it correctly with the camshaft on the base circle of the lobe(s) you're checking and then measure the length.

I believe the 273 pushrods are ball/cup ends. To use stamped rocker arms it will require ball/ball ends. 65'

As long as those rockers are in good shape, keep what you have. I prefer a light preload...something in the .020/.040 range. Once set, you'll have many miles of trouble free driving.
