Rocker stud replacement

#1

Post by jbgoodner2 »

Does anyone know the size specs for rocker block studs? I have ridden the same '62 Pan for over 40 years,but several years ago I made the stupid mistake of installing a set of mismatched (front head plumber manifold) swap-meet heads instead of rebuilding my originals. They are no longer around.(due to my being a guest of the state for 6 years. Blessed to still have the bike!) Anyway, I found a set of o-ring heads in great shape except for several stripped rocker stud holes. I plan to install keenserts in all the stud holes,but am not sure of the depth and thread sizes of the studs themselves. If this info can be found anywhere, it would be on this site!! So, any ideas as to my plan? Anyone know the stud sizes? Thanks for any help !!! Nellie Belle thanks you too !! This site ROCKS !!!!!!
