Hello. Im new to the forum. I have a 1956 Fairlane club sedan 292 (EDB) and it has been sitting since 1983. It had several stuck valves and the seats were pretty rusty from sitting so long. I had the heads (ECZ-B) rebuilt with stainless valves and hardened seats and when reassembling them I noticed I have one rocker arm that is different from the others. All but one are the 5751066 standard lift and one is an ECG6564B2. Will having one higher lift rocker cause any issues or should I try to find a standard one to match the others?
Thanks,
Bill

Similar question asked last week.ECG are 1.54 ratio and all the others are 1.43.Will work fine.Someone got stuck for a replacement arm and didn't realize the difference.Your Club Sedan has been sitting since 83?Great find.How about a couple of pics?By the way welcome to the site.

Thanks for the info! I will attach some pics of the 56. Nice rust free car I was extremely lucky to find. Its just really strange how the only rust was from the exhaust manifolds into the exhaust ports and froze the exhaust valves. The cylinders are nice and the few spots there were cleaned up with 2000 grit abrasive paper. Maybe he ran it for short periods of time way back when and never warmed it all the way up leaving moisture in the exhaust system? Mufflers and pipes look nice?
