I have been running a set the 273 adjustable rockers since I built my 340. At the time they were clearly worn, with some galling on the shafts or in the rockers, probably both…can't remember exactly. I decided I'd file them with jewelers files, buff with emery cloth and run them temporarily. That was over 75K miles ago. And quite a few passes down the strip shifting at 6,800-7,000.
The last time I checked preload some of the interference fit adjusters were quite worn, and I resorted to some lock-tite. But I need to do something.
1) Can these rockers be bushed, and new adjusters/lock nuts used.
2) Is there a good alternative on the market that doesn't break the bank.
3) Anybody got a real nice set of used ones with no problems?
