i would say it depends on the head and intent of use. i used t and d on the dart along with those valve covers i did end up using a spacer though.

and i know i am limited. have not heard of this brand before but a company named prw?? seems to have a small stainless adjustable system. i know nothing about it...

my only concerns are its survival in a street/occasional strip motor. and i would like to have it fit a stock valve cover,,,

RAS bushed 273 rockers with shafts are a great setup for a street/strip valvetrain. You didn't give info needed to really help. Assuming no mechanical roller springs the RAS rockers will live well and never cause grief.

OEM 273 rockers with pushrods for hydraulic lifters work well. Know many that use them on the circle burners where they have to use OEM parts. Don't ry to use the push rods meant for use with solid lifters though. They are way too long.
Not knowing what your intentions are why do you want to go with adjustables???

I use the OEM 273 rockers and shafts. I put the MP adjusters on them.. My car is a race only 360 that now runs mid 11's. I've never had a problem with them.

Boy the Isky iron rockers are quite a bit more $$ than the Cranes. Are the Iskys better?


Keep old mopars alive.

The Comp Cams Pro Magnum roller rockers fit under my stock valve covers.
