What is involved in converting my GT40P heads from pedistal mount to stud mount rocker arms??? Is all that is needed is studs and the stud type rocker arms? Or do you need some conversion kit?

this is probly what your looking fer http://store.summitracing.com/partd...908331+4294840126+4294851051+115&autoview=sku

only thing you would need is 3/8's stud rockers. your choice of 1.6 or 1.7 ratio and different pushrods

I am running that kit on my Powerheads. It works great. Not recommended for insane spring presures as you are still only running a 5/16 stud into the actual head itself. Easy install and Crane makes a pushrod that is .117 longer just for that conversion with thier 1.6 energizer RR.

if youar egonna run a high spring pressure like switch from hydr to solid roller or something similar you could ge the head machined down for studs. I had to do it on my cleveland heads. its nto real expensive and doesnt take much....
