    These are the new Nailhead roller rockers. I will have them with me at the upcoming Midwest Buick Challenge and in Bristol at the BOP Nationals. Look me up and see them for yourself.

    The rockers are constructed of 2024 T351 Billet aluminum. The profiles are machined rather than using an extruding body. This process allows control of the actual grain structure of the aluminum. This means the strongest possible rocker body available. This design also allows for custom ratios up to 1.9:1.

    The rockers are made from the same premium material used on other proven racing engines utilizing over 300lbs of seat pressure and 1000lbs+ open pressure valve springs at over 10,000 RPM.


    List Price: $1499.99
    Buick Racer Discount: $1349.99

    We are offering a limited time discount of an additional 10% for orders placed now.

    Group, these are the rockers I have designed & been working on for the last 3 years. All of a sudden others want to get in on the action with a lesser quality part than I have originally designed & specified by using a lesser quality material. The more inital orders the less the costs. Fifty is the magic number. You can e-mail me direct for any specifics you may need or want. This will require a deposit & the more deposits in a timely manner the sooner it can happen. I would really like to be shipping with-in thirty days. Tom Telesco

    At first the material stated was 6061, now that I have posted what I will use, the material gets changed. How can something be sold by someone that doesn't even know what it's made from or the ratio it will be available in??? They had nothing to do with the developement or the design & are now trying to horn in on something I've been working on for 3 years & taking all the credit for such. It really T'S me off when someone does this. I was told he was an engineer & designer, well he had nothing to do with this. I posted in the NailHead website more than a year ago that I was working on this, where was the designer he says he is??? At that time there was no offer of help or information by anyone other than Lee Schlin who started the NailHead website in the 1st. place & gave me the name of someone who could help after the passing of my good friend who was actually who designed it with my input. This has got to stop, now!!! Sorry guys, I have to vent. Tom Telesco

    Tom,

    Personally, I am aware that you have put much effort into developing Roler Rockers for the Nailhead. I know that this information was posted as early as March this year on my site along with the Feature on your amazing Riviera ( http://www.buickstreet.com/64buickstreet.html#nailheadrollertiprockers ).

    When I first saw this post I thought they where your Rockers but your name wasn't mentioned anywhere, I'm glad you clarified this.

    I wish I had the funds to support your efforts right now but alas I'm afraid it will be up to those in the market for these rockers to do the 'right' thing. Best of luck Tom.
