Anyone know if any machine work needs to be done to Indy 360-2 heads for T&D rockers to work...Do the T&D rockers have smaller shafts...any details would be great....I'm somewhere around 220psi closed/ high 400's open on a smith machine lifters/solid flat tappet...want to put some street miles on the motor and may worry to much with the Indy rockers.....What do yall think???

If you are going to use this style T@D set up you need to have the pedistials milled off, it is a very nice setup I wish my BB had this setup also.

The T&D 8120 rockers for the indy heads seem to be single shaft....maybe they use some form of mounting bushing to run a smaller diameter shaft so they can have a bearing in the rockers....anyone know...if not I'll give them a ring in the morning.

The single shaft ones do have a smaller diameter shaft
but have a bushing over the shaft where they mount
to the head

so they seem to offer a couple styles....standard single shaft or mini shafts on a steel machined plate...the 2nd way definetly seems like quite a bit of work.........so B1, what form of bushing/bearing are on the single shaft units?..do they oil through the head?

The set I have oil through the head,but I was told you could order pushrod oiling no change in price or fitment. They come completely assembled,like Ersons, I have never taken one off the shaft. I am not sure if they are bushed or have roller bearings.

The rockers I saw on Indy sb heads used smaller single shaft with larger diameter collars where they meet the pedestals on the heads
Sorry, I didn't follow your post...you answered my later question....thanks also!
anyone know a good place to order them up.
Order directly form T&D. I don't know of any one that is a DEALER that could give you a discount. Their Customer Service and Knowledge is top notch. I have dealt with them twice and will always go to them for rockers.
Make sure you ask them about what options are available for the rockers you looking at. They have options that aren't listed anywhere. Like shot-peening, roller-tip oiling through the arm, and few others. Usually at Minimal or NO charge.

Yeah.. as said/shown they offer the 2 types of rocker
set up.... single shaft for stock oiling.. and the
multi small shafts but this must use push rod oiling..
I have both set ups on different SB that I have

Did you have problems with the INDY rockers not holding there lash?
I ran mine on the dyno for about eleven runs and each one I had to re adjust the lash. Drove me nuts. Flat mechanical with schubeck lifters.Matt

I ran mine with a Crane solid roller and Crane super pro lifters,Smith Bros 3/8 pushrods,checked lash all the time because I am anal with that stuff. Never had one go out of adjustment.
I've tried to set it. Wonder if I was doing something wrong or bad adjusters?
