So, on a 472, are chp-VT61 rockers good ?

Sealed Power bearings are good, and you never regret paying for quality.

What are the best H-beam rods to run on a big block Caddy? Anyone have a favorite?

If you can find some Olivers and get them to work, that would be my choice.
 
Oliver makes good rods indeed !

Anyone ever run Aluminum Alloy Rods in a Big Block 472 or 500 ?
 
Howdy,

I’ll send some cool engine pictures when the VT-61 full roller shaft rockers arrive.

Thanks and go team go !
What do the rocker have anything to do with it?
 
Nice. Carrillo Rods are epic. I had a set in a 302 DZ and it revved to 8,400 every lap. Let me go see if Carrillo makes rods for my BBCaddy application.

Thanks,
Roy

They even left off the gold anodized color, and these are stone-cold Aluminum. Looks like these may already be clearanced 15A0FAFB-9E18-41D3-B510-D8D0518622A7.webp to run with a full set of ARP Head Studs.... will know for sure real soon.

This looks like a close up of the sellers photo.
 
I agree with Red and the Kid, about running two different types of fasteners.
As somebody's ole' pappy said to their sexually confused child, "Pick one. Go one way of the other." (Or something like that.)

Da HWC!!
Arisen from the dead. :laugh::sneaky::whistle:
