PRI 2010: T&D Machine Releases Ford FE Shaft Mount Rockers

The Ford FE, or Ford-Edsel, was an extremely popular racing engine through the 1960s.  It was used in everything from NHRA to NASCAR competition and came in a wide variety of bore and stroke combinations.  It is still a popular (though getting rare) engine choice for old school hot rodders and nostalgia racers.  One company that continues to support the FE is T&D Machine.

T&D Machine is most well known for their shaft mount rocker systems, and that is exactly what they have designed for the FE.  A shaft mount rocker is a hardcore race product that can also be used for the street.  It reduces side-to-side deflection by anchoring the rocker on the sides, instead of a single bolt or stud in the middle of the rocker.  Furthermore, the rockers are tied together with a stand assembly.

These shaft mounts are T&D’s direct replacement versions.  These aluminum rockers feature a 1.76:1 ratio with a full roller bearing.  They are designed for stock FE or Edelbrock counterparts. To further reduce rocker deflection, the end of the rocker shafts are captured.

• 1.76:1 ratio, aluminum rocker design
• Designed for stock or Edelbrock FE heads
• Full roller bearing with captured rocker shafts
