Running ARP Head Studs...What Rockers are you running?
Installed my heads last night and found that my rockers won't sit the whole way down due to interference with my head studs.
In each pair, one is fine the other will not clear the stud.
These are what I am running.

They worked perfectly for others how may be considering them (Non head stud applications obviously
)
What is everyone else with head studs running?

Back to the top....I just can't seem to find an answer to this.

If anyone has pics of their setup with headstuds please let me know.

If your trying to get the rockers to the bottom of the studs "STOP" that is not how SBC work. The rockers will be held down by you polylocks and suspended about the bottom of the rocker studs by the push rods and the valve springs. I bet you have plenty of clearance.
