Stock rockers fit with the provided rocker stands.

Is it worth it to go with an aftermarket set? And if so do they have to be an adjustable type?

Eh.... stockers w/ et stands are about the only ones that fit without machining. I am pretty sure jesel makes a custom setup for the 265 heads though.

If the stand fits (I know jesel SS stands don't) without machining, you'd still have to shim the rocker stand as the bosses sit higher. Hense the custom stock stand that ET supplies for stock rockers. Otherwise your geometry will be way off.

LME sells the Crower shaft mount adj. rockers. We had them made specifically for the ET heads. They set up very nice and are less expensive than the Jesel's @ 1175. We have used about 7 sets so far with great results.

Give us a call or email for more info.

Thanks,
Bryan

The rockers are 1175 for the set.

The adjuster is at the cup. The rockers are aluminum. They also needle brgs. in the roller tip.

We've got a set of Comp Cams 3/8" Adjustables we're installing very soon. So far they look like an excellent choice.

Is a set of OEM ROCKERS HARLAND SHARP REBUILD going to fit and work well on a set of FTI ETP 215 with the provided rocker stand?

Thank you for your answer Steve,

I guess your heads are the ETP 225, do you know if it works the same for the ETP 215 ?
