Chevrolet El Camino Rocker Arm

Chevrolet El Camino Rocker Arm is an essential part of the engine's valvetrain system and works to amplify the motion of the pushrods to the intake and exhaust valves. Usual material for these rocker arms is either stamped steel or aluminum, the rocker arms transfer the oscillating movement of the pushrods into the desired force to lift the valves. For high-RPM uses, aluminum is used for the reason of light-weight, conversely, cast iron or forged carbon steel is adopted in diesel engined vehicles for their sturdiness. With regards to Rocker Arm, there has been different version that used in Chevrolet El Camino where some of them used traditional metal-on-metal and some used roller types to minimize friction by using needle bearings. The rocker ratio with the modern engine varies from 1.5:1 to 1.8:1 enhancing the performance of the camshaft lift. Better fulcrum bearings are also used in engines with more high revolution rates for stress control and for durability purposes, it's also seen in the development of the Rocker Arm in Chevrolet El Camino.
