Ted, did you ever get any info on these from Dove?

By Ted - 16 Years Ago
Glen.  I talked to folks at Dove about that particular rocker set awhile back and those are for the FE engines.  The picture is inappropriately placed under the Y-Block heading.  At first glance, they look like they are for a Y-Block but the lower side of the rocker support bolts down on FE heads first and then the shafts and upper supports are then bolted in place.  These particular supports are fully rollerized but use smaller diameter shafts which eliminates the used of the 3/8X16 bolts that go through the shafts themselves.  Still for an FE and too much rocker ratio for the Y.

Even they are confused, because they list these as HD yblock rockers.  They show a simular set for the FE with the 1 bolt rocker stand. But then there site is not the best and a little confusing to navigate. Maybe the deal with the other Mfg that we talked about the other day will work out. I should have a price on the ATI hub adapter this week.

Glen;

If you are looking for a nice set of Y-Block roller rockers, I bought a set from Rocker Arm Specialists a few years back. Haven't had any trouble with them and they are holding up fine.

Thanks Rono, I have looked at the Rocker Arm Speclist arms before. Ted has used the Dove products with success, but they are not full roller. I stumbled upon the picture on Dove's site several months ago and passed it along to Ted to check out. Must not be anything to it though. However he is working with another mfg, so maybe we will have a source for full roller rockers soon. I am sure that he will pass the info along if the deal comes through.
