    I have a 77 Chevy Scottdale that is fully restored with a pretty hopped up 350 motor. I have Vortec Fastburn heads [The Corvette LT1 heads] with stock Comp Rocker Arms [No Rollers]. I need to know how far to tighten down the rocker arms? Is there any specific torque? Any special Procedure to follow?
    Thank You for your help!

    I would call Steve Ashworth at Steve Ashworth performance (919) 552-9615. Steve is the best I know for Performanc questions.

    I am not getting older I am getting wiser.
