Rocker Arm Stud
A Rocker Arm Stud is a vital component of an engine's valvetrain system, responsible for securing the rocker arms that actuate the valves. These studs play a crucial role in maintaining proper valve alignment, timing, and lift, which are essential for optimal engine performance. Rocker arm studs are threaded into the cylinder head, and they provide a stable mounting point for the rocker arms. They are subjected to significant stress, especially in high-performance engines, which is why choosing the right stud is crucial for ensuring the longevity and reliability of your engine's valvetrain.

Selecting the correct Rocker Arm Stud involves considering various factors, including the engine's application, cylinder head design, and valvetrain setup. Different engines and applications require different stud lengths, thread sizes, and shoulder designs. If you're using a stud girdle, like the one for big block Chevy engines, make sure to choose compatible stud girdle poly locks. These poly locks secure the rocker arms in place and prevent them from moving, ensuring consistent valvetrain operation even under high RPMs. Additionally, consider the stud material; high-strength steel studs are common for performance applications.
