Pump Gas 508 Stroker: Setting up Roller Rockers the Easy Way!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The pump gas Mopar Big Block 508 stroker is getting closer to finally running. In this video I show the easy way of setting up #440source roller tip rockers, on the Indy EZ-1 heads. These rockers are similar in design to Harland Sharp roller rockers, and the same principles apply to the setup of most roller rocker manufacturers.

    Good luck! The only issue I had with this set was that the rockers ate in to the shaft’s they provided. I checked them after the dyno and they had tracks in most of them. 440 source replaced the shafts for free, but I used Harland sharp shafts in the 508 build.

    Thanks for the video. It’s helpful as I have to do the same shimmy dance to setup my prw rockers for my small block Mopar. I think I need to shave down/clearance a couple of my rocker pedestals as they’re a little too wide and don’t allow my shims to sit flush with the holddowns.

    The Mopar shims might be .020" (I know one of the brands is) which by helps getting the clearance where you want it. Keep both in the shop. Build is looking good. Man, what if we had parts like these in the old days. Strokers, aluminum heads...We'd all be dead.

    Put the thick shims next to the rockers, the thing ones can get into the rocker and seize it.

    I haven’t seen that before. I’d bet it’s a high rpm, too tight of clearance issue. I did see that the 440 source shims have a raised lip on one side where they were pressed out of a sheet. The mopar performance ones were slick steel on all sides.

    I would, if the spacer was thick enough to cut down. Seems like they could have made them a bit thicker to do that. I have a Hughes kit here too and it was very similar. I also have a comp kit that has different width shims. After analyzing, it seems the 440 stuff works best with their rockers.
