    nailhead parts

     



    If anyone has a set of adjustable rocker arms for a 401 CI Buick nailhead, I would be interested in buying or trading for them.....

    OOps, almost forgot !!! the motor is a 1964, I would also be interested in a bellhousing and flywheel. I have the turbo 400 that was original on the motor, but I sure would like to shift!!!!

    Yup, looked at them, Denny. My machinist is redoing my heads and modernizing them a bit. They will have stainless steel valves with the same stem diameter as a SBC. He has the guides in, now we are looking for the adjustable rockers. I would really like a set of roller rockers, I keep hearing that there is a company making them, but so far no luck in tracking them down. Thanks for the help, I know they are out there somewhere, just gotta find them. Appreciate it.

    Dave You might try Federal-Mogul. They have recently been building parts for the 401 and 455 engines including rocker arms.
    Keep smiling, it only hurts when you think it does!

    Thanks, I'll give them a try. Stock rockers are easy to find, the adjustable ones are the toughies to locate.
