rocker arms 292
what are the differences between big block chevy and inline 6 rocker arms? both list as 7/16" stud, are they the same? if so would a set of 1.8 ratio one fit on my 292 i dont want to have to tear into the motor for a cam swap and my buddy might be parting out his 496 stroker with 1.8 rockers, thought it might provide a little extra lift and power with out over stressing the springs and be an easy install. thanks for all your help!

Re: rocker arms 292
His may be 7/16", but yours are probably the original 3/8".
It's doubtfull you would see any gain, even with a warmed up engine. Most aftermarket rockers have clearance issues on the end rockers and require a different valve cover.
