I am looking for a set of the interference fit rocker arm adjusters, preferably new. Mummert doesn't have them. Any one else to try? Thanks

Paul:

The adjusting screws are the same for solid lifter FE engines.  I found a set of new oversize ones on ebay a couple years ago, in the 427 Ford listing.  You might try an FE website also.  If your rocker threads are not worn, I probably have 16 used standard ones around, could be yours at a low price.

You might try Dennis Carpenter Reproductions in N.C. His 2003 catalogue lists standard ones, # B6A-6549-C and .0023 oversize, #C2AZ-6549-A.  Note that 6 cyl 223s also used the same.  However, according to Eickmann's Y-Block book, page #37, the later self locking type should not be used in 54-55 rocker arms.  But, I don't know if it matters..??

Thanks to both of you.
