    I am not sure about this model engine, but here are a list of USA Cadillac parts suppliers that somebody else posted sometime back and I thought it could be useful to me one day. Take your pick for location or what ever else may suit you.
    I am into flatheads.

    Smith brothers can make you adjustable pushrods. I think they are in oregon somewhere.

    I used adjustable pushrods but had a failure of one, the Stude one sounds interesting ,is the ratio the same ,also what year,

    I have had to skim the heads and without adjustment undue stress might be placed on the lifter,


    I feel that this is a design fault on otherwise a great engine

    I have always thought this motor good. It was 11years in development and I reckon precursors the smallblock a couple of minor flaws really is all it has. and possibly cannot make enough horsepower.....

    I dont know, but my 390 has adjustable rocker because of the roller cam
     
  11. McGurk made them, Crane bought them and made them for a while. Gary at Rocker Arm Specialists in Anderson CA rebuilt mine (McGurks) and might have a line on some. He made the roller rockers for the 471 blown 390 I'm building for my Roadster. He can also provide adjustable push rods. Good luck. Dave
     
  12. Have been told Chevy Solids have the oil holes at the wrong height, Have been told by some cam regrinders that that early Pontiac (57 thru late 60s) are the correct ones to use and that is what I will get when they regrind mine to performance specs. Good Luck Dave
