2.2 rocker arm
Tuesday, June 22, 2010 5:03 PM
Ok im a newb with some of the 2.2 stuff. I have a set of stamped steel 1.6 rocker arms 3/8 stud for a sbc. Will the stamped steel fit the 2.2 or are there wide and narrow bodied stamped steel rockers too? If they work ill sell 8 and keep 8 for future projects. If they dont ill ebay them all.

I believe they fit, but if you want to upgrade for a build, why go with stamped rockers? Might as well do needle bearing rollers.

I already have the stanmped steel rockers, they were on a 305 I had. I was considering holding on to half of them for a future project. Although I would prefer the needle bearing rollers.

They will work as long as it's going on a '97 or older motor. You will need the ARP-100-7201 Rocker Arm Studs. The stock stud tops are 10 mm while the nut and rocker ball on the 1.6 rockers are 3/8".

Sounds like the the way to go for me... I should have the money to buy those spares next month, if you can hold-on to them 'til then.


Go beyond the "bolt-on".

MadJack,

Do you have the part number for the '98 2200 rocker arm studs?

ARP-134-7201 M8 X 1.25 bottom and 3/8" 24 tops.

Remember '98 was the transition year, some used part number 134-7201, while the earlier model year used the 100-7201. Check your stud bottoms before ordering to make sure you get the correct ones.
