So where is this and what do you want for it?

Thats a good idea. We will get this engine together yet! Thanks

Thanks We have gotten pushrods from Smith Brothers before. We are in Anderson,or at least what's left of it.

I'm just not familiar with a rocker with out a lock nut. These did come from Rocker Arms Unlimited so thats what the deal is. On to new push rods. Thanks for your knowledge and time.

I want to thank everyone for their input. After hearing all the good advice I've decided it's operator error. Thanks again

We took the lock nuts off the "new"rockers. I guess if the oe isn't supposed to have lock nuts maybe we don't have a problem. We can get the lash we need its just the adjuster looks way down in the rocker. Thank you

Thats very helpful . I should have just asked that to start with.This is what we have. Thanks

Here is a couple of pictures if it helps I know nothing about this engine other than it was a running engine. Nothing had been done to it recently as far as the head goes. I thank you for your time.

I still have the original rockers they look the same. I can post a picture when I get home. These pushrods have a ball and cup. Did the 170 pushrods have a ball and cup? We are in Indiana,explains a lot I know. Thanks

You may be on to something here. All we know about the engine is we drove it home so it ran. When we took it apart the original rockers had NO lock nuts on them.There was visible wear on the rockers and shift so we got replacements from Rocker Arms Unlimited and they have lock nuts on them. You...

I didnt explain it well in my original post. We are short by maybe 1/2 inch. We CAN get the adjusters to reach the pushrods but not with the lock nuts on the adjusters. Maybe thats the way its supposed to be and I just don't know it but it sure doesn't look right to me. Thanks for your reply.

Are the hydraulic pushrods longer? I dont know anything about this engine other than we drove it home. Is it possible someone put a solid lifter cam and lifters in a hydraulic cam engine and didnt change the pushrods? Thanks again

Are the pushrods visibility different lengths? We are looking at a goog 1/2 in of length. Thanks

Thanks

Yes same push rods different rockers. We got the rockers from Rocker Arms Unlimited, they look the same as the original. This was a running engine when we started..The adjusters on the original were adjusted about the same as far as no lock nuts and the adjuster deep in the rocker. Like I said...

This us the 1st slant we have done anything to so I'm not familiar with them either. Is it possible to put a 170 head on a 225 if you know? Thanks

Its a solid lifter. I wasn't very clear in my first post. We had the same problem with all the stock stuff. Thanks

Thanks We had the same problem with the stock stuff.

Hello We are working on a 79 225. We are putting a Comp Cam in it when it goes together. When we mocked things together the adjusters for the rockers won't reach the pushrods with the nuts on the adjusters. We noticed the same was true before doing anything. I guess I'm trying to find out if...

Hello Looking for a 4 barrel intake for a slant six. Anybody willing to part with one? Thanks

Where is this located? Thanks

Title?

Hello I'm trying to find a 225 . I need a pre 74 with a steel crank. Just to make it harder I would like to find one in Indiana because of shipping but would consider surrounding states. Thanks
