Installing Roller Rockers...
I'm putting roller rocker arms om my 360 Magnum motor, but what do I torque the studs down too?. The "lack of instructions", don't give me any torque specs. Thanks in advance. Toddd.

Ha ha, I went through the same thing on my Magnum motor!!! You bought the Mopar rockers, didnt you???? Why dont they put instructions in there????? Anyways, 30 ft/lbs seems to be the magic number for stud torque. When you adjust them (which you will also wonder about due to lack of directions!!!) slowly turn the adjuster till you just barely get rid of the slack in the pushrod and rocker arm. In other words, there will be no up and down movement of the poushrod between the lifter and the rocker. Then, turn it another 3/4 to 1 full turn, tighten lock nut and do the rest same way. After start up, listen, if any are making noise, shut down and do it again. Also good idea to do it again after a couple hundred miles, just for the hell of it. Good luck!!
