super74 Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Good afternoon, all: I did the search....but it didn't produce the results I needed so here goes. Most here know the rule about the reuse of rocker arms when changing cams...but what about the pivot studs?? I got a set of generally good rocker arms resurfaced recently, but now that I have them back from the cam grinder, I have no way of knowing which rocker arm was matched with which pivot stud. Is it OK to reuse reconditioned rocker arms on mismatched pivot studs, or is this asking for a disaster?? All the old pivot studs are "shiny," of course, but are in surprisingly good shape, and I really would rather not buy new studs if I can avoid it. Adding to this, I've already taken the wipe pattern with the resurfaced arms and gotten the proper thickness lash pads, so there would be additional time involved along with money if I cannot go with the old hardware. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all who respond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
