Shaft Rocker Arms // T&D Machine // Best in the Business

[@willabunnjr216]

T&D rockers for the win. Heard nothing but good things from everyone using them.

John is always putting in work!! Thank you for bringing us along 🙏🏾🔧🔩🪛🛢️⚡💥💨💨✅🇺🇲💪🏾

I wondered how a shaft mount rocker system would work on heads with canted valves. Very interesting! 25:46 - and John it sounds like you need to feed your kitty! 🤣😻

Good job bro

[@garywoodward847]

Very nice man those things are sweet.

[@robertwetherington3372]

Definitely made the correct choice . 8000 rpm on a big block 532 shaft rockers are a must . The weight of the BB valves compared to the SB valve has to be considered

[@Wardaddy1124]

T&D is one of the best companies for rockers that’s what I run in mine

[@a.jsipple7322]

This is sort of sophisticated John. I feel like you are surrounding yourself with the right kind of people. It was not long ago, You were running an engine block You found in a ditch at the end of the street. Rock On!

[@dennykatz157]

Did you install the shims on the intake side before or after you measured pushrod length? A .040 shim will change your pushrod length.

Nice video; building an LS for a tin can and good info on geometry

[@ysitrim88]

Awesome John! I have T&D shaft rockers also

[@robertdouglas3456]

Awesome job of explaining how to install the rockers & checking the pushrod length! TD for the win TJohn! Great job!🤩🤩

[@tommywilliams5135]

John i have welded them it just tyes them together to stop any flex evens load out

[@jaredshoemaker9196]

Thanks so much for the info. Best of luck.

PLEASE READ TJ , you have to use tread sealer on intake bolts or you Will get oil in take runner sir . I let it sit over night as well to dry . Also pattern should be thin and in the center on all valve tips or valve guides will wear quickly .... Just heads up buddy 🙏💪😎👍

Titanium valve spring retainers will put fine swarf in race engines as they seat to the springs. A little aluminum dust is not going to hurt anything.

Me and my dad do it with the Shop-Vac that seems to work good for us

[@GeneG-wk2mz]

Big block to the front nice

[@markwaltrip8960]

I'm a Chrysler guy our stuff stays on a shaft but it comes out of adjustment now my friend has a big block Chevy with them shaft mounted rocker arms he got 300 runs out of it we checked the rocker arms and only one of them was out just a little bit they are unbelievable we were shifting around 7600😊

Car is RIGHT!

[@jalbarado1]

Oh boy....🙈

[@JasonWalters-cj3rj]

Remeber I had a major issue breaking rocker studs on my old 410 cu sbf. Geometry was off somewhere and it kept snapping studs. Shaft mount setup would have been nice.

[@michealwriska2920]

hey tj i was always thought that u want the roller to ride dead in the middle of the valve stem an u can probably use the same push rods

[@micah6615]

Do those rockers come with lash caps

[@Jared45513]

So kinda sidebar but it's still valvetrain related. Anyone have experience or opinions on valve spring rotators? I'm rebuilding an olds 455 and both intake and ex. have em. I didn't even know they were a thing.

[@bigboreracing356]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@taptoretry7335]
