I need a replacement rocker arm insert stud for my 66 326 HO motor. 7/16" pressed end to 3/8"-24 thread. Thanks to ReelFun who sent me 2 last summer and got my car going. I have now broken another stud (totally my fault with over tightening). I brought the heads to the machine shop and, after 3 /2 months, he said that he cannot get a screw in stud from his suppliers.

Could someone hook me up with 1 or 2 replacement press in studs to get me going again? I would sure appreciate that.

FYI ARP still has them #290-7201.You stud boss will have to be milled,and drilled and taped for the 1/2 base.You will need to set the heads up for adjustable valve train,meaning either poly lock or chevy style nuts.The threads might also shorted on the studs.Isky used to sell a 1/2 by 7/16 unshoulderd stud where the stud boss would not have to be milled.Good luck with you project.If you wanted the 15 I have figure $40.They are about $100 a set.Tom
