SBC to 60 degree parts compatibility?

[mongo]

This may have been previously answered but what parts are compatible between a Small Block Chevy and the 60 degree family? I keep seeing parts and kits that APPEAR to interchange that are much less expensive for the SBC than the 3.4. Rocker arm kits are a good example as well as piston, pushrod, and lifter kits...

Pistons wont.

Rocker arms will with the proper parts, cam bearings will, pushrods are the same design but different length, flat tappet hydraulic lifters will and so will some solid lifters. Some ignition components like the ignition coil and after market CD ignition boxes work. 5.7" con rods work with the correct modifications.

cam bearings, small journal 327 rods will work if machined to fit, u will also have have a brass bushing install to bring the wrist pin down to the stock size (or use custom pistons)

I was curious as I need (want) new rocker arms, rocker studs, pushrods, and lifters (if I buy the cam separately). It seems that rocker arms sold in a set for a SBC are significantly less expensive than the same rocker set for a 60degreeV6. Same seems to go for other generic hardware... and I end up with spares!

Rocker arms only work if they are narrow body non self aligning and you use the correct conversion studs.
