How do I know if I have pedestal or stud mount rockers. I have an 89 LX 5.0, so far stock engine. Thanks.

I believe stock are Stud mounted but some people go to pedestal. Ford Motorsport sells the pedestal rockers.

Stock are pressed in 5/16" diameter pedestals.

Studs are stronger and easier to adjust.
