Roller rocker kits??
« on: March 16, 2008, 10:18:34 am »
I came across a mention of roller rocker kits in another post, but only of people hearing of them, not actually having a set.

Has anyone ever SEEN or a have a photo of them?

Does anyone have any info on who might have been making them?

We used to sell them. They were made by a company called Amol Precision.

It was a set of rocker shafts that were ground down where they went in the rockers, and you put needle bearings in this area. I guess they were needle bearing rocker arms.

Never heard of a rocker with a roller on either end for a Honda.
