I've got the 305 out of the car right now. I want to go with 1.6 rockers if I can get a good price and make them work with the centerbolt valve covers. Did a search, but didn't get the answer I was looking for.

From what I've read comp cams makes 1.6 rollers that will work with the centerbolts. Anyone have the part #? Also do I need ones for a 3/8 guide or is that the wrong size.

Also the motor I have is a rebuilt w/35000 miles. No smoke even at startup. Do I need to worry about valve seals?

 

there is a company in CA that is called Power House that I believe has their own brand for about one C note. Summit racing or Jegs should have the comp cams part number for you. Or you can just call COmp cams for there part number

Stock stud size is indeed 3/8" At least it was on my 081 heads...
