-- Cruising the by ways the other day, gathering some mileage on the fresh SBF then suddenly a loud clattering noise like we'd dropped a rod-- "now WTF" --regroup for a mo--I know that noise --a rocker has broke or something --so off comes the RH tappet cover ('cause it was easiest to get at) to reveal what was suspected, #3 ex't rocker had dismounted --pedestal stud POS had broke off at the lock nut --so after a few more expletives to clear the mind, improvised a quick repair to get home. ( usually carry some studs, in case, but not today--actually lucky to have some spanners and that)
They are Edelbrock ally no brainer heads that came with rocker studs - so, assumed they'd be of reasonable quality --light springs still and the rockers are some suspect red anodised ally roller tip type.
Question is --what are we (engine pros) using as the most reliable rocker and mount hardware
