I have an 88 360 I am trying to put back together. I have a set of roller rockers I want to put on it and am curious if anyone has ever tried using rocker arm studs from a ford. The studs have a 5/16" base thread size to match my heads.
I was a little worried whether the would be any strength issues with the
5/16" base but my machinist said with my spring pressures, it should not be an issue. He also said that he has not tried them on an AMC but put a set on his friend's ford and it is running with no problems/stregnth issues.
Here are some links to the parts.
