Hello,

I seen some Ford truck/Lincoln re-manufactured NOS rocker arms part number RM-2140 ( 1952-1955). Will these fit a 292 or 312? The 1952-1955 seems weird and I can't seem to find anything on the part number. The info that I am giving you is right off the box. Elray machine products, Livonia,MI and Revere Parts Div.- South Hackensack-NJ. Any Info would be great, Thanks

Since it says '52-'55, my guess is that they are Lincoln rockers.  They started making OHV Lincolns in '52.  If so, they will not fit Y blocks.

Hey John,

Thanks for the reply. Yes I did verify what you said, that they will not fit. I ordered a pair just to compare and then I returned them. Ford's have a shaft length of approx. 16.25" long and the Lincolns were approx. 17.5" long. also the rocker themselves are not interchangeable. The Ford's are all perpendicular to the shaft while some of the Lincoln's were perpendicular and some were angled,  which I assume their valve placement is different than a Ford.
