Neo-Retro 327 - Modern V-8 Power with 327 Looks
Brule installs the rocker arms and sets the valves. For the first combination, we used stock-type stamped-steel rocker arms, though we chose to go with a fresh set, available from Comp Cams. Well-used rockers are often worn at the tips and at the fulcrum, where the ball stud makes contact. These rockers use the stock 1.5:1 ratio and will work with the Comp Cams flat-tappet hydraulic cam and lifter combo that we had Dougan’s install during the short-block rebuild. The cam is a replacement grind for the old L-79 327ci/350-horse engine (222-degree duration at 0.050-inch lift, 0.447-inch lift).
