Hello there is a set of high lift rockers on eBay I have completely rebuilt my engine except for the rockers that were badly worn. My engine 1956 292 can I use the high lift assembly . Thanks

Should be good to ~.530" or so without doing a clay test.  Multiply your camshaft lobe lift times the rocker ratio that is for sale, and see if it is less than .530".  If so, good to go.  Joe-JDC

I am using a standard cam,  the eBay listing says  1.54 I do not know what it means. The seller says they came on all the 292 engines . But I wanted to ask here first. Thanks

Some the ones in the boxes look used to me.  On the end that contacts the valve stem.  Double check me.

Somebody on this Site is/was selling those Rockers on Ebay. I assume Adjusters are not included.

Their mine, I still have about 15 sets, they are all brand new, the pictures are with my dirty hands. the boxes I sell are nicer. I started with about 40 sets, almost all gone, these are the lock nut type.
I sold a set to Ted, ask him about them.

How much are they buying direct from You? Its costing You at least 20% to sell on Ebay. The Instructions with the Arms indicate they should be used on Intake Valves only. Anyone know why?

I have received a set of those from Cliff and while I haven’t used them yet, they look good.  They are new old stock.  No adjuster screws but those are available from several different manufacturers.

Where do you get adjuster screws? 

By DryLakesRacer - 4 Years Ago
I found adjusters at Titian, Crane and other racing engine suppliers. You can even get them with the cup style ends and not the ball type. My head builder doesn’t like the ball with a cup on the pushrod.
Since these Barkers are listed as 1.54 they may have been designed and made when the Ford ones were in the 1.4 range. My Thomas Magnesium ones for a GMC would still allow the stock small diameter pushrods but as soon as you went to 5/16” or 3/8” ones the hit the head so you had the grind the head.

The Ad doesn't indicate that they will fit a Y-Block & the photos don't look promising...

Guys these rockers use stock ford adjusters.

Watch the ball size Ford and the aftermarket don't agree on a standard.
