Default Harland Sharp rebuilt rockers



You should be able to see my rockers after being rebuilt by HS. They look really good and should eliminate the bearings problem.
HS pointed out to me that four of my rockers had wear marks to one side of the tip. Anyone have any experience related to this wear pattern?

Check with Nate. He'll cut you a good deal.

I might have to do that. Might be a set of Yella Terra 1.7s up for sale decently cheap soon.

Somebody must have seen this, or is it just on mine. It would seem if this happens on all heads that it could be an issue with roller rockers.

It would seem this could be a flex issue ;-) If you're getting one side worn unevenly, thats about the only way. Thats why people install shaft-mount roller-rockers.

The uneven wear is on the stock rockers and only on four of them?
