These arent the 1-piece pushrods but there atleast 3/8 comp cams :D part number 7854-16 w/ 3/8" Guides part number 4806-8
What im not sure on, I have new 5/16 Guides on my heads right now, will those studs fit or no go? Im thinking they should. Also would it be unwise to run stock rocker arms? I was thinking of putting new rocker balls in and using the stock rocker arms, this would be the only thing run that came with my engine. Other than my flexplate and rods that is tongue.gif

Studs are fine!!
I would buy a set of C's cast Magnum roller tipped rockers and be done with it b/c I don't think it is all that good an idea to mix used rockers with new balls... But I have done it OK before I knew how they actually wear together from new...
What's everybody else say???

Kick A! Yeah I just need to figure out my rockers then. The rocker balls dont look bad, Im not sure how to check them.

oops i misread, forget what i said about the guideplates.
you might want to buy a set of stamped steel "long slot" rocker arms. depending on the lift of the cam the stock rockers may contact the rocker studs.

Glad you brought that up, I was curious about the long slots. My cam has .524 Lift

i have no idea what lift the stock rockers are good for, you might as well pick up the long slots, better safe then sorry.

Just a general FYI,I use stock,non long slot rockers with my .525/.550 lift cam and have no problems.
