robftw Posted September 9, 2011 Share #1 Posted September 9, 2011 Well, i was going to get these resurfaced for my new camshaft, ISKY has already ground it and after speaking with ron he instructed me that 175 lash pads will fit However i just grabbed my old rockers about to take them to the machine shop for resurfacing and saw this... were they touch the lash pads they are all different heights. oddly, all of my lash pads are within 1-3 thousandths of each other, yet the rocker arms are 20+ ?! so what are my choices now? 1) Buy new rocker arms 2) Get each lash pad machined separately to fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5thhorsemann Posted September 9, 2011 Share #2 Posted September 9, 2011 I'd go with option 2, and adjust the rockers after replacing them in the order removed. You did mark their positions when they were removed, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5thhorsemann Posted September 9, 2011 Share #6 Posted September 9, 2011 $160, I would go new, and sell the used to offset the cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
