Return PolicyAdd positive retention to your rocker arms with this complete stud pinning kit. Rocker stud pins are cheap insurance for race engines that require stock cylinder heads, or for mild street engines built on a budget.
Most factory cylinder heads utlilize press-fit rocker arm studs, which can pull out under certain conditions. Stiffer valve springs, high-lift camshafts, high engine RPM, and engine overheating all contribute to stud failure. These roll pins lock each stud in place, preventing them from rotating or loosening.
Works with all engines using pressed-in rocker arm studs. Note: Not for engines that use hollow studs, such as early Pontiac V8s, that have through-stud oiling for the rocker arms.

Customers appreciate the product's qualities, noting its reliability and practicality for use in automotive machine shops. They appreciated its cost-effectiveness and ease of installation, highlighting that it successfully prevents rocker studs from pulling out, making it a preferable choice over more expensive alternatives. However, multiple reviews expressed a need for better quality drill bits included in the kit, indicating a possibility for product improvement. The product's usability and performance make it an attractive option for those seeking a smart solution in similar settings.

they are easy to install you dont even have to pull the heads to install as long as you use a shop vac to catch shavings any body could use this product and alot cheaper than screw in studs unless you are building a massive thumper

It is what I expected
It is a complete set of roll pins and a proper bit, no instructions so if this is your first time you may want to YouTube it. The pins are large and single roll, I wouldn't personally recommend them on narrow guide bosses like a vortec etc.

But supply with kit is not hard enough to cut through the studs. Had to buy a cobalt bit to drill through the studs.

I have an automotive machine shop and had a customer that was running a bigger camshaft than stock and didn't want the expense of machining for screw in rocker arm studs so I suggested this as an alternative and a little extra insurance.

This is the answer if you use any cam and springs other than stock with pressed in studs. Get a few extra bits the same size as the one in the kit because you will usually break the one in the kit before you finish drilling all eight.
Great Product.
