Where to get offset rockers?

I need some offset rockers for my LE3 heads. Lloyd recommended the jegs setup. They look really nice, and for a great price. I ordered them, but then found out today they are on backorder, and might be available in may They told me I could buy cranes offset rockers for $40 ea. Thats a lot of money!

My engine will be here next week, and my heads will be here soon after. Id like to have rockers next week as well. What are my options?

Re: Where to get offset rockers?

I would say whenever going to, or requiring an offset rocker, I would look into shaftmounts. You can get into something like the Jesel SS series for $725, thats what I run on my AFR 210's. Find out what offset you need, and talk to the tech guys at Jessel. Trust me, your valvetrain will LOVE them.

Because Lloyd welded up my push rod area for more porting He recomended the jegs brand .150 offset rockers. Lloyd had you grind my cam, I figured you knew about that.

Yeah, I've recomended that before to guys. Isky has a offset rocker as well, .150" offset. No matter what you have to do a aluminum body one which sucks.

Re: Where to get offset rockers?

So it looks like im looking at $640 for cranes, or $725 or so for shaft mounts. I may just wait till jegs gets theirs in. Its going to be killer having my engine that close, and just sitting there in my car in the garage. Oh well.
