Not just show poodling it around at cruise nights and car shows
TBH, personally at this point having one in a car that runs at all and moves under it's own power will be plenty enough of an accomplishment, let alone attending any kind of event. I don't intend to join the straw hat and lawnchair crowd anytime soon. It could happen later, but pretty unlikely.

And then, there’s these. Nobody here ever brings them up I wondered if Manton made some after seeing what Steve Morris had made for by them.
running up my post count some more .

If there were only some way to determine who someone would contact to get a set of these....... This set does not look like it fits the 426 street hemi motors   I wonder which brand Hemi heads they fit on?

No use for a Street Hemi guy.

But wouldn't they make them for a street hemi, if someone threw enough money in their general direction?

Manton has a Faceboogie page and they say they use tool steel for almost everything. They don't say which tool steel or what the heat treatment/hardness they have. I suspect it's A2, but I haven't been able to squeeze anymore info out of them. I've heard the Jesel SS rocker arm kit is about $6k and there is three or more versions of them.

Any part for Hemiroid motor is never cheap, good parts costs a lot more money than the cheaper ones, but you may save money in the long run by buying the good ones to start with: up: work:

I have a much cheaper setup. Older DLI roller rockers w/ MP shafts and aluminum stands. Been using mine since 2006 (street/strip) and never had any issues other than typical valve guide and stem wear. In the 850 hp ballpark NA and 1150+ hp or so on nitrous. I don't go much above 7k RPM and I have a pretty mild solid roller cam in it. Is the Barton setup much easier on valve guides?  I always felt like unless you're turning 8k+ RPM, then the Barton setup is nice, but not of any real benefit...unless the geometry is improved enough to where there's a real difference in valve guide wear.

Billet stands that tie into center head bolts, Individual stands for each rocker, Each stand adjustable height for each rocker..... was enough to sell me. Before the barton rockers, i had an old school Norris steel rocker on a Indy 1-RA head and they worked good as well. Shifted it at between 7700-8000
