Hello:
Why do we insisit on using adjustable roller rocker arms on street engines? Is it really neccessary?
A recent article in “Engine Masters” magazine featured a 383 rebuild.. The final analyisis was of the installation of a “Comp Cam # XE 285 HL. Using stock valve train the engine showed
455hp@6,000
RPMs. Just wondering why use pricey adj. Roller rocker arms when heavy duty stock arms will work.
No hassel figuring out pushrod length or worries about adjustments or lock nuts loosening up. For a
Street engine it just seems much simplier.
Thanks
Maynard
