I do have ARP head studs... I believe i have a HV oil pump... when i crank the engine over with no spark plugs or fuel in it, and valve covers off. oil starts dripping off the top of the valve springs and i had to grab some rags before it makes a mess... The guy i bought the new shafts from...

here is my thread if you want to glance at it. https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/threads/273-rocker-arm-adjustment.385140/page-5#post-1972620167 thanks! Steve

Hello B3RE! Some of the guys here on FABO referred me to you because you sell geometry correct kits for my application. I have a 340 with 273 rocker arms and i am having some issues with galling on the rocker shafts and the push rods touching the pass through holes on the head. I have been...

getting ready to go to the Silverwood Coaster Classic Car show this labor day weekend in Athol, ID Its disheartening to think that i only get to take this car out once a year...anyway here is an update with bad news... i took the rocker shafts off to see how they were doing and they are...

yeah i have about 11"-11-1/2" from inside of quarter lip to leaf spring. the tires actually measure about 9-7/8" wide. so im good on side to side clearance. where the tires hit was the front of the quarter panel, which i think was from all the movement in the spaghetti like suspension. I think i...

i went from the stock 5 on 4 215/60R14 to 5 on 4.5 255/60R15 Mickey Thompson E.T Street S/S tires with US Wheel 15x7 with 4.5 back space. I got the bigger axles and green bearings from diff doctor. its the biggest wheel and tire combination i could find that fit the car with out tubing or...

Yeah it's pretty much stock setup. And good point about the springs and shocks they could be wore out. The plan is mostly street, occasionally strip. Around 300 hp.

What are you guys using to keep your rear end suspension from hopping and moving around. i just put bigger rims and tires on. I down shifted the other day got a violent reaction from the rear axle, got a enough movement in the leaf spring that the tires touched the body and bend some sheet...

in order to find a match to what i have on my car, the 10-1515, i had to look it up as a 1971 dodge monaco on the rock auto site

i think they might have mis packaged? because i ordered a 10-1515 and what showed up was what looks like 10-1516.... online stores need to have ACTUAL pictures of their dang products

not sure how they figured i needed the flat tabs with holes in them. the original shocks just had a rubber bushing with steel sleeve in the center.

looking for some 90/10 shocks that will fit my 1970 dodge dart. I ordered a set on summit racing, and when they showed up they were wrong. Even though the picture was promising and the application was correct. Here is some pictures, the white shocks are the originals, and the red ones were the...

Can you guys identify what year make model this brake master cylinder comes from? see attached pictures. My 1970 dodge dart, i believe was converted to disc brakes in the front by the previous owner. Thanks

So i am rebuilding a 8-3/4" that came in my car. i think the original owner broke it, and when it got fixed it wasn't setup correctly. had almost no backlash so the differential would make a horrible noise when cruising. so i got a master rebuild kit with new ring and pinion and crush sleeve...

It's going good so far, I still need to tear it down and inspect it this winter, to see how things are wearing. Alot of people are suggesting a geometry correction kit. I am thinking I should just make the jump and convert to roller rockers. I'm trying to get this done this winter so I can...

40 lbs at installed height, 200 lbs at full cam lift. So 160 lb springs. In order to get the hole that is under the rocker arm to get oil of top of the valve retainer I had to mark and drill the shaft at full valve lift, and it's still boarder line.

I have a feeling these are some heavy springs, I am going to measure them to find out. Those springs in the picture are the light springs for mock up. The new shafts I got from OE push rods, have the holes in a different location as the stock ones. I got my custom push rods, so I'm going be...

So I got the holes drilled in the rockers. And I see a problem. The holes are under the top of the spring retainers...so if I drill the hole on the shaft while on the cam base circle the oil will miss the top of the valve tip. So I would have to locate that oil hole lower on the shaft so when...

ok so lets make the two holes in the rocker arm 1/8" (.125") The 3 oclock hole in the shaft 3/32" (.093"). 6 oclock hole in the shaft, 1/8" with banana groove, and the 9 oclock hole 1/8" With alignment like this first picture with the 3 yellow dots

Everyone good with the hole locations in the shaft and rocker? The updated picture shows the two yellow and one green dot for the three holes in the shaft per rocker location With the bottom hole having the banana grove. I see what you guys are talking about with the stamped steel hold downs...

yeah i got a set of .015" shims so i can really dial that stuff in, RR recommended no tighter than .015" per pair of rockers. Here is a some pictures of the machine work to the top of the rockers. Any other input guys on that last keyboard full, i would like to firm up that procedure. I am...

important update.... Has anyone here done the drilling in the shafts themselves? How did they drill? I just talked to Don at OE push rods and he had indicated that i may have a hard time drill those holes because they are hardened (this must have been that coating that i chipped off in in the...

oooohhh dang, ok well thanks for checking, that would be awesome if one of your customers had some laying around. In the picture there is some big 2" holes that i drilled with this thing, its a "C" frame hydraulic press, sure is handy.

oh ya i forgot about measuring the installed height, got ahead of myself since i had them off, thought i would check them. But i will have to put one back on to measure what the installed height from top of bottom shim to top of spring retainor. Then put that in the spring press and then...

Here it is apart

here comes another keyboard full, but wait there is pictures at the end! LOL Do we need to be concerned that the 3 o clock and 9 o clock holes will still line up, even though they are at different angles? Green highlighted line shows it going straight through. The blue line is what we talked...

ohhhh ok, yes the rocker arm has three holes, i thought you were talking about 3 holes in the shaft. The rocker arm will have two holes when i am done (access hole plugged with set screw, hole at 9 o clock, and top hole brazed shut, and drill one hole under the arm of the rocker at 3 oclock)...

I got the top hole of the rockers brazed, i used silicone bronze tig rod and tig brazed them, it went ok. I ended up using the same method to plug the holes in the shafts, it went ok until i was machining the welds down smooth in the lathe when i realized the shafts are chromed and the lathe...

Its a Jancy Slugger JM2000 Magnetic, non variable speed. That would be awesome if you had one laying around! Thanks
