Hi guys...One of my Harland Sharp roller rockers in my 2003 SRT10 recently broke and Ive decided to go back to stock roller rockers.....

My question envolves the push rods?????

Are the push rods part of the roller rocker assembly?

I can still drive my car it isd just noticable slower past 3500 rpm's and smokes....Dose this mean that it's only the roller rocker and not one of the push rods??????

Im really kinda lost on this one...

Im buying used stock SRT10 roller rockers from a member here but Im confused if Im suppossed to also purchase push rods or not???

I have some bone stock 1999 rt10 push rods left over from when I changed out the rockers on that car...Are they the same size/length as the 2003 SRT10 push rods..

Any help is much appreciated...THANKS

DO NOT drive the car! If your rocker is broken, part of it along with the pushrod are bouncing around inside your engine. If they make it down into the rotating assembly, that could be a very bad day! Not to mention, if its an intake rocker, you have fuel pooling behind the valve and sloshing in the intake until it warms up and boils as fast as its injected= possible hydrolock on another cylinder when cold. If its an exhaust, you have fuel pooling in your cylinder and a no-burn condition... quick way to kill a set of rings or hydrolock a cylinder as well!

The rest I answered in the PM...
