The motor we are building was given to us by a friend. It turns out that some of the parts are either incomplete or from other motors.
I read that the rocker arm studs on the Mark IV 454 is 7/16". That is what I have. The rocker arms dont fit over the stud and I would have to push down pretty hard if I wanted to make it go on. It would seem to me that these are from another motor with a 3/8" bolt. If I do need to buy new rocker arms, what do you suggest? the motor is a stock 454 with a torker mtc-6 cam.
Thanks,
Frank

Frank,
If you are using just standard stamped steel rockers, I have a set....Used but in good shape, let me know if you need them..
And yes, they are more than likely from 3/8" and potentially the wrong ratio. :thumbdown:

Thats what I thought. I will buy your set from you. I will PM you my info. PM me your address and I will get you some cash in the mail.
Thanks GT. :thumbup:

Took the rockers off the motor and put them in the bath (oily and don't want to piss off the shipper) as soon as I get them dried off they will be on their merry way.
16 rockers
16 cones
16 locknuts
Let me know if you fall short any where else... :thumbup:

Thats awesome. Thanks for the help. I am trying to get the rest of my parts list made up right now. I'll be posting up again soon. ;D
