Just a reality check - are all stock stamped steel rockers for LA 318s and 340s interchangeable?
yeah, the overall dimensions are the same.I know that Direct Connection offered heavy duty stamped rockers - I have a set on one of my engines, but the overall dimensions are the same, which is the question... this is on a 318 street engine and I wanted to make sure that any of the stamped rockers that I have around would fit. Has anyone ever see the pocket for the push rod fracture and break away?
About 10 miles south of Chehalis/Centralia.Where the heck is Winock, WA ??? - I even tried googling it with no success
Any recommendations for a warm 340?Yes, there were heavier gauge rockers avail, I also have a set.
I punched the pushrod thru a few rockers, usually on a missed shift, the piston would spank a valve, witness mark on piston confirmed.
Carried spare rockers in glove box beside the spare ballast resistor.
