Re: Need advice on fixing broken rocker stud on Big Block..

YUP,, there is some garbage parts that found their way into many a hotrod,, but you need to assume it's a quality part and find out WHY it broke.
Remember Murphys 2nd law of mechanical relationships..

"OPPOSING COMPONENTS ATTEMPTING TO OCCUPY THE SAME SPACE, AT THE SAME TIME, GENERALLY END UP OCCUPYING ADJOINING SPACE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE OIL PAN"

Check every possibility of WHY it broke before you assume it was simply a inferior part or you can end up with a huge mess.
