I am looking for .006 oversized, press-in replacement rocker arm studs for my 1976 Bronco 302. . .or even standard replacement studs. No luck finding. Anybody know what part # I need or where to look to find.

I thought there were also some screw in replacement versions. Not the kind that required machining the head. Just tap the stud hole and screw in.

Pull the press in studs and tap the holes for screw in early chevy studs. No drilling necessary. The early chevy studs dont have a hex head and are tapped 3/8 -16 in the head with 5/16 shanks that fit the ford hardware. Without the hex base you dont have to machine the heads to lower the pedistals. You can pull and tap the stud holes on the engine without pulling the heads.
