Strip,
I don't think they do. I don't know what girdles cost, but you might want to consider spending a little more to go to Jesel rockers. I think they are much more stable.

Hey Red Dog I just had the two motors in my new (to me) Outerlimits freshened up at Gellner Engineering and we upgraded to the Jessel Shaft
Rocker Arm System. They say it way easier to Adjust plus much more accurat.
How is the Windshield doing on the Formula?

Stud girdles suck!!! Jesel or T & D shaft rockers are the way to go. Stud girdles also won't fit under stock valve covers. By the time you buy the girdles, spacer and rockers you could of nearly paid for the Jesels. Not to mention with stud girdles it may be impossible to remove the valve covers to set lash without removing the exhaust, depending on what exhaust is being run.
Just my .02!!

Man I am glad a guy posted that question, I never look at the tech page but I could not help it when I saw that post as the lead in on Tech section, OK I will leave now and go back to the general section where I feel at home

Stick with the U-bolt style girdles instead of the "better" sandwich style girdles. The U bolt ones take up less room.
You WILL need spacers, but only about 1/4" ish. You can get the covers off without dropping the exhaust with 1/4" spacers, but if you use the standard 1" spacers, you almost gotta pull the mans to get them off.
