Hey guys I was going to do a camshaft swap with new lifter, springs and roller rockers on my stock 330hp 454. Bob from RM builders is the guy helping me with the proper camshaft,etc. Anyway the boat is shrink wrap as of now and there is now way for me to acces the engine. What I need to know is the stock peanut port oval heads on my motor use pressed in rocker studs or are they screw in rocker studs? I never had the valve covers off so iam not 100% sure but I thought these motors have pressed in rocker arm studs.
thanks for any help

99.9% sure They use the non adjustable shoulder bolts. You can look up your engine on www.mercruiserparts.com to verify.
The ARP screw in stud kit is about $35
