6.5 Girdle

[opto]

Thanks for the info, but more specific which Jesel rockers?

Yes , to machine an aluminium spacer would defenetly be the way to go.

Would it be possible to get in touch with Andrew?

Sorry to be bugging you about this but....

I had a look at the Jesel web page and couldn't find any rockers that looked like the ones used so I asked Jesels tech help to identify them. Answer is that this is not a Jesel rocker setup.

What could it be??

Working from memory sometimes isn't always "completely" accurate. My mistake. So....Here's a quote from Andrew's original article he wrote in 2002... Jim

The stock rocker arm pedestals were machined flat to accept the roller-rocker adapter blocks. The roller-rocker assemblies consist of Comp Cams adjustable stainless steel shaft-mount roller-rocker arms that have been modified for the 6.5 diesel. These assemblies utilize a roller bearing on the fulcrum of each rocker, along with roller tips. Each rocker shaft is .625" in diameter and case hardened to 62C Rockwell. The pushrod adjusters are made by Jesel, and retain the stock 6.5 pushrods.

OK

Thanks a lot

Is the stud girdle still performing well? Did you make or are you making kits for sale. I can build my own but if someone has already done it and it works why rock the boat?
