How Does Reid Machine Build Top Fuel Hemi Dragster Rocker Arms? We Take a Shop Tour

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Just a couple of days before Christmas we stopped in to visit Darrell Reid and the Reid Machine crew to see how they design and build some of the winningest rocker arms for top fuel, alcohol and nitro Hemi engines.

    Just got off the phone with Darrell. I have a set of Reid Rocker arms for my 392 Gen 1 HEMI. I got these second hand. Had a few questions. Darrell answered every question I had and seemed happy to do so. Seems to me to be a great guy.

    Ray Barton makes a good set of Gen II Hemi rockers for stock configuration. They're expensive , but I'm sure Reids will be too!! If it saves an engine then they're worth it.

    Yes! Barton does make a good rocker system that has seen tremendous results, but his rockers were not designed at the 10,000th scale using CAD software. What Reid is doing is a whole different animal. Nobody in Nitro or Top Fuel are running Ray's rockers, but they are using Reid's.

    Before they even said it i was hoping they made stock replacement stuff.

    Yup, but expect it to perform MUCH better than stock.

    Okay, but where can we get Glass Valve Covers so we can watch all that beautiful Engine Jewelry doing its thing?
