Hey guys, if any of you have access to an aluminum BBC roller rocker, I need to get the width of the back (pushrod) side. Make and ratio are of no consequence.


Thanks!!

Hey I had an old set of Harland Sharps and I came up with: 1 1/16.
I didn't have a set of calipers handy sorry.

the back of my rockers taper some, the first picture is from the widest parts of the body, which are both flat and parralell, this would be the widest part of the rocker, it is 1.390-1.400(stupid digital calipers)

the second pic is from the back, this part of the rocker tapers down and is about 1.130 at its narrowest part

sorry it took so long, i had to pull the rocker off the motor, and bring it to my house to take pics, plus i kept forgetting :bsjerk:
p.s. they are crane energizers(will be getting replaced with crowers soon) also notice the dirty finger nails, I was workign on my exhaust all night!

Damn man, you didn't have to yank one off your motor just for this! Thanks a bunch. I'll just round up yours and Brents and go with a worse case scenario of 1 3/16" at the very back.

Thanks again guys!!
