Rocker arms?

[91ghp5.0]

I'm looking into my springs/rocker arms for my stock E7's. I'm currently running stock springs/rocker arms with a B cam. I've been told that Crane makes the alphabet cams for Ford, so I'll call them for a spring match. What 1.7 rockers though? Harland Sharp? Crane? Comp cams? Scorpion? FMS?

I'm experiencing a little valve float and lack of "oomph" in the upper RPM range. Thanks for the help guys.

Edit: Oh, and should I be buying "stud mount" rocker arms? Thanks.

There are so many to choose from. stud, shaft, pedestal mount. i dont know which one!

also...do E7's have inline or canted valves?

your going to need pedestal mount for E7s
edit: i happen to have a spare set of 1.6s with shims.

1.7's no fit with cam and stock heads without notching piston.

stud mounts on the e7 heads.

You have inline valves on the e7 heads. A common example of a canted valve design would be the trick flow twisted wedge heads. Just compare a pic of the two and it should be pretty easy to see.

Gotcha, that makes sense. Thanks!

3/8'' studs?

e7 heads do NOT have stud mount rocker arms, I repeat DO NOT have stud mount rockers, they are pedestal style.
