Lol well that tells me Bruce bechelder's ruling and the rulebook ruling on this topic isn't worth the pdf it's printed on. The "head guys" are cutting the pedestal and putting nice beefy 7/16 screw in studs in with big valve springs so do whatever you want. Why are we wasting time with 5/16 pedestal bolts?

I ran Kuntz motors for years in a 87 Mustang M/SA car that went 11.80's 12 years ago with 5/16 pedestal mount rockers and that was with stock stamped steel rockers before the roller rockers were legal and they worked just fine. just my $.02
