    No alignment tab = guide plates = new pushrods.

    A small dowel pin could be inserted in a drilled hole on the bottom if that would make it easier. I ground the alignment tabs off a stock set and shimmed them to work on an iron head motor for over 30k miles and never had a problem and that was bolted to a round surface instead of square. I never had a problem so properly torqued I don't see why they wouldn't stay put with a flat surface.

    If any of yall go to SEMA, they wont be on display, BUT go talk to the guys there, tell them you are talking with John at Scoggin Dickey, and tell them you are buying a set of the v6 rockers when they come out. If possible ask if billy is there. He is the guy that knows the most about what we are doing and the guy i talk to about all this. That way they will know that we are serious if a person is just going to approach them. Let them know how much they are needed and that there are alot out there that want them.

    The first person that does this, ill cut them a deal. 1/2 price for the rocker set, but you have to prove to me that you talked to them. meaning i need name of the person YOU talked to,Then i need THEM to take your name down and to call me WITH YOUR NAME to verify that you did in fact talk to them at SEMA or PRI about these rockers. How does that sound to add some excitement to the game. If anyone else does it also, i might be able to do something for them, but this is for the FIRST PERSON ONLY...let the guys over on GAGT.com know also, ill post up a link to this thread. The first person that posts via timestamp on this post or PM's me that they talked to them, and then I call scorp and talk to them to verify, when these rockers come out, you are getting a 1/2 price set. I will try to get a good deal on the guys that go there and still talk to scorp though, just to get the ball moving faster.

    On another note, If you call in to scorpion and ask to talk to Billy there, and then do the same thing. Tell Billy to take your name down and to email me, he has my email, if not its jginter@sdparts.com with your name. Then PM me or post/email to let me know. Then i will try to get your name on my list to get the rockers first, and possibly at a discount. Its nothing 1/2 price, but hey its a start.

    I'm still waiting on a simulation with my setup to see if its worth the cost right now.

    Well I'm down for a set.

    Just have to decide which ratio.

    I'm going to be at the SEMA show in a couple of weeks. Will these things be on display there?

    Thanx

    I would love to get a set of rockers by spring. If they really end up being about the same price as a cam, I think i will have to get a set.

    at least im not the only one that got a shitty one.

    i think mine was the rivet or whatever the hell it is was breaking off so the thing that actually holds the spring retainer against the spring was breaking off.

    lets just say it should have lasted more than 1 time. i only got one set of heads out of it. i barely kept it together long enough to get the heads done.

    the one i had had like a T handle not the knob.

    I bent the little clip on mine that falls in the notch that holds the handle from flying and hitting you in the face...so yah i might take it back and get another one

    I bought that style spring compressor from sears, made by Lisle tools. It has a real handle unlike the knob pictured, and after a few dozen spring swaps it still works great.

    x2 on using compressed air for keeping the valves up!
