everybody except those who rebuild total stock engines wants custom rockers. I don't want to step on anybodys toes as CHRIST would not be in it . but I want 1.65 rockers that are adjustable preferably irn or Rachat de crédit meilleur taux crédit alum don't really matter also but I,ve brought serveral items into production for different applications for 3 decades. I,am retired now and really don't want to go thru this for several reasons but I,am gonna because I want a set for my engine. pushrods isn't a problem, hard chrome rocker shafts isn't a problem. theres gotta be a real close if not right on match to the rockers . example fe rockers,292-312 rockers etc. as far as cams if you,ve got a good core isky will regrind your to your spec,s and you,ll know your cam isn't china junk. that's my plan on it. I guess 255 pistons so I don't have to cut head or block down /or not as much.

Hi i have been following your discussion and i would like to buy this business closed
and I have some questions to ask you in passing regarding this? thank you for your comeback

As moderator I am approving this post with some reservation; if it goes sideways appropriate action will be taken.
 
@ Invectivus - Any updates on the rocker situation? Have you (or anyone else) found the "magic bullet" that will give all of us an inch of valve lift, using stock springs, pistons, heads, etc., and flow 400 CFM? :D :shock: :beer:

Yeah...
Anyway - I really would like to know what you found out on the Comp Cams 1.72 BBF, the FE 1.76, and the 1.6 5.0... and if you know of an easy way to mount them (the YT plate/pedestal you mentioned, or something?)?

Thanks!!
Brad

I've been looking at some different rockers, and I'm trying to see what I'm missing. I have a set of Yella Terra 1.65 ratio full roller adjustable rockers. They are virtually indistinguishable from 1.6 comp cams 5.0 v8 full roller rockers. If I drop a pin into the divot in the middle of the YT shaft, line it up with the dimple on the 1.6 5.0 shaft, they have virtually the same push rod cup distance and elevation, and roller tip distance. The YT have additional gusseting around the bottom, and a larger relief cut for the spring. But if the YT can use a 302 spring, and obviously so can the 5.0 rocker, I don't think the relief cut would be an issue.

The Comp Cams 1.72 BBF rocker has a longer nose.

I have a set of full roller FE rockers coming Friday, 1.76 adjustable. It seems that unless I'm missing something, using a YT style locating plate and pedestal system, or an FE style rocker shaft system, it's shouldn't be that hard?

I'm just not sure what I'm missing that has seemingly kept people from doing it yet.
 
the guy's had some health issues Joe...
not sure where things R @ right now

Forget about using stock springs or 302 springs on anything but a stock cam or a cam with stock rate of lift.

Our motors are a lill different.
R U interested in a local retailer (to here)?
(there are benifits to having an in-countey distributor as cross-international lines-fees build up quickly)
 
First of all, i discover this forum because my father is building a Ford 300 engine and searching for info of the engine. We have a work shop that make parts and build six in line engine. The engines we build was for a racing cars like nascar, here in Argentina, it's call TC (turismo de carretera, means road tourism in spanish) it is the oldest association in the world, older than F1 and NASCAR. In 2015 the main organization (ACTC) order to make a new head cylinder of 24 valves aluminum made and they rule the engine and forced the pilots to buy them all the parts. So we started to make and build engine for regionals categories. They race with the ford 221 and the chevy 230. But it have a rules that limits the engine to be cheaper. So that's the main reason i make this rocker arms without roller and no light alloys. The rules doesn't allow it. But i have some to 3d cad models to make them of aluminum and with roller for high performance street cars and drag racing. I'm interested in selling them to USA or Australia or wherever they want. Here i sell them arround 650 U$$ but they are custom made. I never sold them outside Argentina. I can reduce the price if i make a mayor quantity. I made in 1.50, 1.55 and 1.65 ratios but i can reach 1.85 ratio. If i change the nose distance i can reach 2 or more ratio.

Here i add more pics attached:

One of the ford 221 and other 3 of the ford 300. I made it for a drag race car.

Welcome to the Ford Six forums Lucas Wlke Motorsport, those are some great looking rocker arms. I am a fan of those Argentinean 221 racing six'es! (y) :nod:
 
I also say those are very nice rocker arms! I would be interested in a set for the 200 cid Ford straight six at your estimated price point.

Please tell us more! Do you and your family have a website or something so we can see more details?

Thank you
Brad

We use them in aluminum heads (made in Arngentina, i saw a similar one in vintageinlines.com) and in the original Ford sprint head. I can't load pics but here is my email schiavo.lucas90@gmail.com i can send you pics of how they are assembled.
