Just checking to see if anyone has (1) BRC 170 roller rocker arm for a BB. When i cracked the valve covers off i had a whole set minus 1 (they replaced it with a Mr. Rocker). Please get in touch if you have one (or maybe even a set if the price is right) as this will save me about $250 on replacing the whole set :(
Thx,
Tom

Tom,
Contact the manufacturer, because 90% of them sell individual replacements rocker arms. I know Lunati sell individuals. They have to do it this way or they would never be able sell them, because the customer would by
if he had to buy a new set everytime one went bad.
Don't let anyone con you into thinking you need to buy a whole set. If they tell you that they only sell a set then I would buy another brand and just check to make sure that you can buy them ind. if one breaks or goes bad.

Not familiar with BRC Brand.
But all BB chevy engines are standard with a 1.7:1 ratio. And I would have to make the assumption that the 170 in the part number stands for the ratio of the rocker arm.
If you are missing one any brand 1.7 ratio roller rocker arm can be used as a replacement. I know it would be nice for them all to match. I would just get something close to the same size and shape with the same ratio.
