stud Rockers to Pedastal

rwhite65 · 06-21-2005, 10:47 PM

Does anyone know where I can find the conversion setup for this? I have a great set of 1.7 trick flow roller rockers that are for stud mounted heads, but want to use them on my e7's. The e7's are all assemble and painted on the engine, so taking them off and having the studs installed is really not the best option. I am not to worried about durability...since the valve springs I will be running are just slightly stiffer then stock.
thanks,
Ryan

I'm going to check with my machine shop guru about that conversion. My bet is that it may require removing the heads to change from pedestal mount to screw-in studs. I will try to ask about it this week. Even with machine work, it still would require new studs and guide plates to use those 1.7 RR's.

Sounds like it should work. I'm not familiar with that conversion, but Crane is an old line very reputable outfit. You might call their tech line to make absolutely certain that it will work for your application. just a thought.
