350 Compression release

Post by Eckmann »

Hey,
Is there a special rocker that is used for the compression release mechenism. I aquired a comp. release valve cover and the plunger for the release hits the rocker arm and won't go on.
Thanks,

Hey Elbert,
Thanks for the help.
I've got the screw adjustment type rocker and the lever type with the nut underneath the valve cover.
Any suggestions?
Will i have an easier time finding valve cover or can the rocker arm be easily replaced with the solid?
Pics would be helpful.
Thanks,
Kyle :?
