    The pad that the rocker shaft sits on is square on the more desirable heads. The older style ones are round.


    I think these were posted in the FST section by mistake since they are Vee parts.

    A square boss is a guy that has you by the balls and doesn't like race cars!
    Some of the older heads have a round pedestel that the rocker arm assys. bolt down to
    and the newer heads have a square pedestel that supplies a better support at the assy. base and prevents the rocker assy. from tearing the boss out of the head. You can drill and pin the old style heads thru the stud and that will strengthen the stud. The increased valve spring tension and higher then normal RPMs have caused some of the
    older round boss heads to loose the studs.
