Wonder why the bad rap on factory arms. Except the ratios being off from time to time.


I don't think anyone has broken one. It's just that the roller rockers look sexier. And in your mind the roller tip has to be easier on the guides. Not that anyone is going to actually be driving a 426 Hemi any miles to speak of. This isn't the old days. I've never torn down a stock street hemi that the guides weren't worn out.


A stock street Hemi with how many miles ?


Most that I have torn down had 20, 30 or 40,000 miles. They were worn out. People used to drive these cars. 4:10 Dana and 70 mph speed limit. Those were the good ol days.
