Re: "Rice Rocket'
i bought my self align. rockers at my local parts store, i had to put them on my 85 4x4 because with the aftermarket heads some would want to drift off center of the valve i think i just told them i needed rockers for a 95 an later 350

Re: "Rice Rocket'
Your local GM dealer should have the self alighning rockers. If not check with Scoggin Dickey. You might want to consider RHS or other American made aftermarket fast burn castings. They will be less prone to cracking and will be able to handle more than .450 lift without modification. Nastyz28.com has a great thread on the Vortecs BTW.
