Quick question my rockers are not available anymore.. would I be able to use a single replacement of a different brand or have to change the whole set?

Other than extreme situations, in my opinion yes.

Ok it's not a race engine or anything just mildly upgraded engine.
What brand you have and picture of them.
Maybe a member has broken set....

Didn't you see PRH has a single? It's in your other thread. He's a good guy. PM him and get a matching rocker.
BTW, the blue MP rockers are the exact same thing, except in that fugly blue color.

Just an FYI I had those on my last 440 and they would break adjusters like crazy. Crane sent me new ones. I ended up switching to Harland sharp and never had another issue.

I've seen the Harland sharp ones and ya 8f I have any more issues I'll be looking to change them out.. the cranes are what came with the car.

As long as the replacement is a 1.50 ratio, it should work. Only thing to pay attention to is the width of the trunion. You may need different spacers on the shaft for a different one.

Like I said PRH is a straight up guy and well known. If he wants you to pay in Bitcoin or wampum pay it. He won't screw you.

many, many years ago, a friend had a 426 Hemi, and he wanted new adjusters, he supplied me with some Crane "computer engineered" adjusters. I went to put them on and they were sloppy loose, so I measured them with a micrometer over the (3) wires, and they were way, way undersize.

Crane did not understand rocker arm geometry and the sizes were always off
read crane's ideas on setting rocker arm geometry- as far off as comp cams
now cams he understood
