Still spending aggravating hours adjusting your traditional style stud rockers only to have to repeat the procedure the next weekend? If the answer is yes, then Jesel Sportsman Series rockers are the solution for you. Since their release in 2001, Jesel Sportsman Series rocker systems have proven themselves to be the ultimate replacement for inadequate stud rocker assemblies on OEM and aftermarket cylinder heads. Easily able to handle today’s aggressive springs and cam profiles, these 2024 aluminium bodied shaft rockers are designed to withstand open spring pressures up to 900 lbs while maintaining precise valve lash settings and are recommended for naturally aspirated engines. Both racers and engine builders have been rewarded with years of reliable, trouble free service of their Sportsman Series rockers on countless applications from daily drivers to bracket drag cars, various marine applications, oval track dirt and asphalt racing.

Jesel Sportsman Series rocker kits are designed to bolt on without any cylinder head modifications and in most cases still fit under a stock valve cover. The rocker geometry is preset and engineered using the common valve supplied with the particular cylinder head to provide a bolt-on and go installation. Thanks to Jesel’s extensive state-of-the-art CNC machining centre and a closely controlled manufacturing process, these specially engineered cost effective rocker systems can be delivered to your door just days after placing your order.

Sportsman Series Stand Link

This patented stand link, ( U.S. Patent 7,028,653 B2 ) designed for Big Block Chevrolet kits, orientates the CNC machined steel rocker stands and aligns the rocker roller squarely with the valve tip. The stand link also acts as a safety guide in the event of a loose bolt.
