I'am not sure if there adjustable or not? But the 292 and 312" motor were the old Y blocks.. and I think they had a different bore spacing ? and have a different bore spave ..the Valves and chambers would be spaced different also ...

And why would you want to use a set of 50 year old Rockers on a motor anyway ?? JMO

Ehhh now!! I'm going with OEM's on the 390, although in hind sight I think it would have been cheaper to just go with Pumpbuilder's or Crane's LOL

and no I don't think the 292/312 rockers fit the FE but I'm pretty sure they are solid lifter setups.
