Find yourself a set of 273 adjustable rockers and a set of ball/cup push rods for adjustable rockers with hydraulic lifters.

I work at a race engine shop so I know how to seperate cheap crap from the good crap.
Let me re-phrase the question: who is still making this style rocker ?

Aah, I see.
As stated the ol 273 rockers have worked well. RAS stainless bushed are decent also.

I bought a set of roller 1.6 aluminum rocks for my small block and ended up scoring a set of stock 1965 273 rockers before the aluminum ones arrived. I still have the aluminum ones in the original wrappings with both ball and cup adjusters. Never used or even touched. I am sure that they are China made. If you're interested, $250.00 plus the ride.

I think the best deal are the Crane gold roller rockers, best bang for the buck.

If those oem arm have a jamb thread type adjuster, you'll need to replace them with a set of adjuster screws and lock nuts, so factor that into a set of arms.

The PRW rocker arms are fairly inexpensive. They are bushed with a roller end. I have a set of 1.60 SB rocker arms that are left over from a project if you're interested.

or just run magnum heads...then any SBC rocker works. Scorpion Performance has some nice ones that are USA made for about $200-250/set for SBC/SBF/AMC apps that would work with the magnums.
