I don't personally have any experience with the Jesel setup. It would certainly merit a hard look, though. The Comp 1/2" stud setup is very reliable and stable...many use it with good results.

There are no blocks readily available for BBM and our blocks aren't nearly as bad as the stock Chev blocks, they went from the worst blocks to the best overnight and the BBM gained nothing. The Chevs are running a shaft type rocker on studs, night and day over the junk they came with, my 426 came with adjustable rockers that work just fine at 57 years old, once again the BBM gained nothing. The 426 came with double springs which were quite good until the spring rule opened up to help the Chevs and cams got crazy, they went from junk to anything they want and I gained a little. The BBMs didn't need aftermarket rods and cranks, the GMs did and they got them. I love the class but it's so biased in favor of the Chevs it makes me sick, sorry for the rant.tenxal wrote: ↑Mon Apr 20, 2020 10:31 amRocker mounting must remain as produced in Stock Eliminator. In short, you can't run a shaft rocker system on any engine that originally came with stud mounted rockers. Like small/big block Chevies.
The unlimited spring pressure rule applies to all engines in Stock Eliminator, not just the Chevy stuff. And there are replacement blocks allowed for other makes, as well.

Re: Factory 396/427 chevy cylinder heads
All the Chevy criers is why the aftermarket rods, cranks, blocks, rockers, lifters, carbs, springs and more were accepted in Stock. If you don't know that then it's pretty obvious that you don't build or run Stock Eliminator cars, engines.
