Default Harland Sharp Roller Rockers Issues

I just bought these off of the parts for sale board and im having issues installing them. 2 fit perfect but on all the others the gap between the exhuast in intake rockers seems to be shorter than the other 2 that fit. They are the stock 1.7 and they are being put on an 97 ls1 corvette head. The stock ones fit perfect...
Any ideas?

Go here for installation help. They are not the same but might help.

I put them on my car and did not have any problems.

Good luck.

I have no idea if those gaps where about 1cm longer they could fit.. but i have no idea how to strech that rod that they could be long enough... i was hoping that i could get somone that had the same issue to let me know what i need to do.

I had the same problem with my HS's all I did was pull the two rockers apart from each other, start the bolts then slide them back together and finish tightening. Hope this helps.
