Re: [Chrysler300] Rocker shafts.

[c300c@xxxxxxx]

Hi Marshall,
 
Unless you are intending to use the 300-G in full-race competion, the  
adjustable rockers are a waste of time and money. The factory hydaulic lifters  
perform as well or better for all types of driving except maximum flat-out  
rpm's. Besides, you don't have to adjust the rockers after each run which  
entails removal of the complete intake manifold setup. I hope you have a good 
 supply of valley cover/intake manifold gaskets. You will need them.
 
If you are still determined to replace a perfectly good set of rockers and  
lifters,  go with competition hydraulic lifters, keep the original rockers. 
 Save yourself some grief.
 
Rocker shaft wear of 0.0005" is miniscule. This indicates that the shafts  
are still doing a proper job after 48 years service. Keep them.
 
My nickle's worth.
 
300'ly,

I intend  to replace the rockers with adjustable on my G's engine with
adjustable  cast iron units as recommended by MOPAR Performance.   Also
had  intended to reuse the rocker shafts.  The wear is less than 1/2 of
one  thousandth.  Good idea or bad?
