Do the 273 adjustable rockers work with the the new Trick Flow SB heads?

As far as head bolts, will the ARP head bolts for the Edelbrock RPM heads work, or do you need the specific Trick Flow head bolt kit?

AFAIK, those heads take their own head bolts. A buddy has a set and he was told they are TF only bolts. Or studs. Whichever you prefer.

Honestly, when I looked at the heads I didn't look close enough to know why a set of W5 bolts wouldn't work. Now I wish I would have looked closer and taken some measurements.


As to the rockers, TF moved the shafts up and towards the intake manifold, as they should have been. The problem is differences in rockers changes the geometry. I'm going to say any rocker will take some correction to get the geometry where it should be.

I would call Mike at B3 racing engines and talk to him. He has info on those heads and what rockers will work the best.

I don't see why the 273 rockers won't work, they may just take more correction.

Try it and find out. You'll probably be the first to know. Those heads are brand new and almost zero information has been posted about them.
