Comp Cams Roller Rockers
For Sale Comp Cams Roller Rockers part number:
1118-16 Chevrolet V8 265-400 7/16" 1.8 ratio.
Thats right 1.8 ratio for small block chevy. They are used but in pretty good shape.
They need guide plates, 7/16 studs and won't fit centerbolt valve covers without mods to the inside of the covers. I bought this set of 16 roller rockers with 16 locking pins -- a complete set.
I was going to use them on my heads which were to be pulled and modified to fit the rockers (studs & guide plates). But I wrecked my back at New Years and can't do any serious engine work this year -- actually I am lucky to still be walking. Anyway, next year I am building a new motor and won't need them.
I am into them for $195. They look like the one in the pic. Let me know if you are interested.

You need tool steel or pacaloy springs. The speed at which those would have opened the valves would have been crazy.

Hey AcceldZ,
Well I guess that was the point. Keep in mind the rockers were part of a head build-up. I have a collection of parts that would impress a Nascar guy. The valves were mondo $$$ ceramic coated, stainless low radious, etc 1.94 and 1.6 plus the springs are doubled up I forget what they call them anyway they are good for .550 lift (the heads have to be prep'd for these). I was going to buy HD valve guides as well -- when the heads were in the shop. I went with these nutty rockers to avoid changing out the cam -- they would put the lift to roughly .500 hahaha.
Unfortunately I have damaged my back (fractured 4th lumbar) and can't do any serious engine work this season. Sucks to be me right now ohhhhhh.... my aching back !!!
