shaft mount rockers

what kind of shaft mount rockers are some of u guys using, i have lt4 afr 210's and going single plane and want to use the shaft mounts but there are so many out there. and i was told the spacing was different with a reg sbc than a lt1? i am using a solid roller cam with 670 lift. and getting rid of the stock pcm for a fast unit

Im using Jesel SS shafts on my AFR 210's. Yes, the valve spacing is different between the 210's and a standard SBC or LT1 head. You can look on either Jesel's website or call their tech line for the correct part number.

I'm running Jesel Sportsman shaft rockers on my AFR-195, LT-4 heads (1.6 Int & Ext). Initially I was told they would not fit, but they fit perfect! I'm also using 3/8" custom push-rods and they clear the heads without any problem. You will need some slightly taller valve covers with the Jesels. And the performance gain was significant!

Yes, but only after the shoot-out in April!

What part number did you use? I may end up just getting those. The T&D are just too much

I have the Jesel 336060 `s also but on my AFR 190s. And I have the black Proform centerbolt valve covers similar to the chrome ones in the pics from The Engineer.
