Can’t get Harland sharp rockers to fit on head?
Something's not right, as you have eluded to. While the shaft mounted big block Mopar seems simple, it is actually very easy to bolt it all on and have some big problems that can get even bigger if left as is. I found that out the hard way.
Mike at B3 Racing is at the leading edge of resolving the Mopar shaft mounted rocker geometry and fitment issue. You would be wise to contact him, as he is an absolute expert on this topic. I highly recommend him, and he has top-notch customer service as well.
Can you show us pictures of the clearancing on the rockers?
I've attached a couple of pictures of what Mike's kit looks like on my heads. The motor runs so much smoother to max rpm now that its like a different motor. B3's kit along with some of Manton's Stage 5 - 7/16" pushrods and a Dwayne Porter valve job have transformed my RB. It's never run this good, and is nothing short of amazing how much smoother it is.
The odd thing is most people just bolt on a set of shaft mounted rockers and call it good. There's a lot to be gained by taking the time to optimize your valvetrain geometry.
