Nice rocker assembly too. What is it?
They are stud mounted Yella Terras roller rockers from Australia.
They cost more than most folks spend on rebuild parts
With custom puhrods you looking at about $1400 rocker arms and pushrods. Let me tell you I said a few curse words getting pushrod lengths correct to optimize the valve geomentry, difinately not for the faint of heart or budget, that what's cool about my job, I get to play with other folk's goodies.
This engine engine was almost as trick as any race engine I ever built, Acme custom 8.0 to 1 JE pistons with Total seal rings, Sean Brown did the head, Hans Peterson S/C cam, APT CF-04 lifter, Basil Adams one piece aluminum lifter cover, modded by me to have a breather tube, all ARP, Rollmaster vernier timng set, Tri metal bearing, blueprinted and balanced, Hi Flow Serpintine pulley set, Rivergate 5spd kit. Not may pieces missed on this engine. I'm going to write a article on it, it will end up in some magazine, it's probably one of the most specific street S/C built engines built in the US at this time, I'm sure someone will chime and say they have done this or doing one though, we going to do before and after dyno testing on the two engines. This drivetrain is pretty much a all out effort for the Supercharger. You don't even want to know what all this cost, imagine what a good restored pull handle MGB is worth and you're close.
