Why does nobody make a rocker over 1.6 for a la small block shaft mount??, I see they make bigger ones for magnums and w-stuff but why not for the factory style shaft mount?

The only way to get the true answer is to call the manufactures and ask them up scope
Let us know what you find out please so we can share that in the future thumbs

Because you can't really make the rocker any longer and you can only move the adjuster so close to the shaft before the adjuster is too close to the shaft.

IIRC Harland Sharp used to have a 1.65 rocker. Not sure if they still do.

Also IIRC T&D would do a 1.7 if you used the small diameter shaft.

But that would mean relying on my memory. I wouldn't do that.


Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

My T&D's are 1.7 and I don't think it would be an issue getting 1.8's.

Are they are Chrysler diameter shafts or on the smaller shafts?

The Magnun rocker arms are a 1.6 to start with so looking for a 1.7 is easy but I have not noticed a 1.8 advertised for the Magnum head.
