They fit. The Harland Sharp 1.7 Roller rockers were specificly made for the 318 and 360 Magnum.

As for the M1, with your 42'' tires I'd keep the stock kegger as with the M1 you can lose the low-end torque. Just replace the belly pan with the Hughes aluminum pan, do the kegger mod, replace your cap, rotor, plug wires, plugs, theromstat and call it a day.

You can. I just said you can't use them with an aftermarket cam without the exact length push rods because they aren't adjustable
In the case that you have a bigger camshaft You can just get the 1.6 ratio rockers.

Click on the DIY Link in my sig. The there is another link in the DIY section to the kegger mod. YOu'll find it. But I am not going to hold your hand here.

Kegger is a term we give to the intake manifold because it looks like a beer keg cut in half.

Because lift kits are simple. Engines are a science (So are suspension systems, but that is different than just lift kits).

We have a very good Glossary Sticky in this forum that has the meanings of many of the terms and acronyms used in here or relative to our trucks, including kegger. You should check it out.

My 98 was repaired by the dealer under warranty. 30K later (probably sooner) it was leaking again. In addition to that I found that the lazy tech sheared off the two rear manifold bolts. I repaired it correctly myself. I know the bolts are all in, new, and torqued properly. I also have a pan that is better suited to the manifold. 5k later my intake is dry dry and still shines. Would you really get any benefit from having the dealer slap on a new gasket?

Nah, it's just your own thoughts bouncing around in the empty space between your ears.
