    WTB: Rockers for a 69 911

    Having trouble finding early rockers. So far have only found 964 style rockers. Does anyone have a good used set or know where to buy them? Thanks!

    Craig Garrett <garrett@iserv.net> can probably help you. If not Henry at Supertec will have what you need.

    Franz from my machinist I learned that besides that they are pricey the shops he works for prefer reconditioned old used one’s. Second best to NOs.

    yep i also prefere cut from a good donor...even befor NOS ...but finding one is the one thing... and if you are lucky and found one i doubt that the labor intense job of cutting, trimming and fitting the used one costs less than the reissued one....you also have to take into account the good parts you have to destroy to salvage the rocker.... over here from october to may the reissued costs 165€ and if you can deduct the 20% tax(like i can) there is no good reason for a repop.

    Franz are you referring to rocker arms (my thought) or outer body rockers since you mention cutting and trimming?
