Can any one tell me if BBC roller rockers are a perfect fit for the 194-thru-292? Or is there some advantage using roller rockers made just for the six (like Clifford or P.E.S) ?

Yes, they are basically the same & will fit, just make sure you order the correct size hole for your studs.

You can order them one at a time & save money, instead of paying for the extra four.
Comp cams, etc.
In other words ,,you do not need to order a complete V-8 kit.

That sounds even better!, I am probably going to order Comp Cams stainless steel rockers(1.7) from Summitt. They look fairly compact compared to the aluminum.I was hoping they would clear my stock "Chevrolet" on it valvecover.(Currently I am running 1.460" springs with stock studs and arms)

very little difference from going from a 1.7 to a 1.75. For most the difference is so little that if one already had a set of 1.7s It would not be worth the money to turn around and buy a 1.75.
As for me tring or running a 1.8 no i haven't


With this new cam I'm running a 1.73 rocker and the push rods in this new motor are like 10 3/8 inch long.(what they call a 10.400)
and with a 690/681 lift I'm pushing things because i didn't want to get into a 700 lift.So I dout very much if i'll even think about let alone try a 1.8 rocker at this point. I really do not want to have to go with a two peice push rod.I have both stock dia. and a 3/8 push rods JUST ? incase the stock dia. doesn't hold up.
