I am looking for one bushed W2 exhaust iron rocker arm. Can be new or good used part. Prefer one that has not been ground for valve spring clearance.

PM me. Let me know what you have.
 
Early 273 and 318 used the same exhaust rocker. Have one bushed and refaced. also cut for the adjuster. They did not come bushed from the factory on T/A assemblies. I might have one but they are not bushed they were all taken to the new machine shop with all engine parts. I can ask my son if he has time to bush one and cut one for the adjuster if there is any left. Assemblies were selling like hotcakes there for a while

They most certainly did not.

NOS 273 rocker on the left, NOS bushed W2 exhaust on the right, still in the DC packaging:

Left to right, we have the NOS 273 arm, a 340 Six Pack exhaust, and an unbushed W2 exhaust. The production T/A exhaust rocker is thicker and has a stouter rib than the 273 arm, while the W2 dwarfs the other two in both departments:

There's nothing a'tall wrong with 273 rockers, and the geometry of all three is identical, but 273 parts are nowhere near "the same" as W2 or even factory T/A.

And before anyone asks: The rocker arms shown are not for sale.
 
Correct. The thick one on the right is what I am looking for.
