Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Why is the trunnion reinforcement necessary on stock LS rocker arms? A: Factory rocker arms use a stamped sheet metal retainer that can fail at high RPM, allowing needle bearings to escape.

Q: Are these rocker arms direct bolt-on replacements for stock LS motors? A: Yes, they mount directly to the factory rocker pedestals using standard LS valvetrain mounting bolts.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
