Hey guys whats new? I was just blessed with a few extra dollars to fix up the old steed. I have pedestal mount roller rockers and i am hardly impressed with the ability to set lash. I would rather not spend another 1k on heads that already have studs to accept stud mounted roller rockers. So my question(s) to you is,

How many of you have tried/used the conversion kits? pro's/con's?

Any horror stories about the wimpy 5/16 stud breaking?

The motor setup this will be applied to is a 347ci engine with edel performer heads, upper, and lower. The cam specs are .544(int lift) .573(exh lift) with 238(int duration) 248(exhaust duration) 112 l/c.

thanks much!
