I run a 440 with a 474 lift cam and bone stock rocker arm and shafts. the engine sounds good at idle but under a load the rockers start rattling. I pulled the valve cover off and there's some slop there under the push rods. Who makes a good performance rocker arm assembly that's reasonable. Thanks for any help.

It sounds like lifters or incorrect length pushrods to me.

You COULD try Isky iron rockers, but it's about $100+ and I don't think it will fix the problem.

Sounds more like detonation if only under a load.Get some race gas and then try it.If it stops its detonation.Rocky
