Default 72 LS5 Rocker Arm Question ....

Hey ..

Quick question .

Can I use the HP "H" type (I think 1.7) rocker arms on my stock 72 454?

I need a full set of rocker arms (swivel ball/retainer nuts), and I found a set of NOS "H" type on eBay.

Thanks in advance

Bill

All big blocks had 1.7 ratio stock. Not familiar with the one's your referring to but they are probably just the "long slot" versions that will accommodate high valve lifts without binding.
