Stud Girdle

Can you run a Rocker Arm stud girdle on centerbolt heads?

Good. I am planning on running a pretty aggresive SR cam and really don't want to shell out the $800 for a shaft setup.

I've also been told they are a real platnum plated PITA to adjust rockers with. I am running stud mount rockers, shift at 7200 and am doing fine, thus far.

I call you now...

You can make most of that up by selling the rockers and not buying the girdle.
You'll appreciate the shafties more when you have to adjust the valvetrain.
Stud-mounted make that a bit of a pain. Especially true in the SR world.
