rockers for trickflows?
I have a set of trickflow heads and was wondering what ratio rocker I will need for them? I was guessing 1.7 but I also thought that since they need a 7.5 pushrod they may need a different ratio. Thanks for the help.

What ever rockers you run make sure you check swipe pattern before determining pushrod length. yella terras requie the shim for tfs and a different pushrod than comes standard normally espcially if you get them milled and different gasket thicknesses.
Top Fuel has custom pushrod length for his setup also I hand to shim harlands to get the right pattern I believe it was a .060 shim

you have clearence with harlands (never had any touch), but its interesting I have setup abut 7 cars with harlands and all had a less than ideal swipe pattern. I wonder if they changed the valve install height or or raised the rocker bosses
