70sWagoneers Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Ive got a 1937 Buick Special 40 with the 248 ci Straight 8. It needs a new rocker arm shaft which I cannot seem to find so far, but has anyone had one re-chromed and ground? Where/who does this and maybe about how much might it cost? Thanks James C.

Jim Bourque Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Sent my 25 Master 6 rocker arm shaft to Electronic Chrome & Grinding in Santa Fe Springs California. They did an outstanding job on mine, quick turn around and reasonably priced at 165.00 including return delivery. Yours my be more $ as its longer and it's been 4 years since I had mine done.

Mark Shaw Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 James, You might try calling Pete Phillips for a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EBartos Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Very sorry to be completely off topic with this comment; my apologies to all post-ers. I couldn't figure out how to ask a question of Mark Shaw: Mark, I saw a comment you posted 5 years ago regarding Astroshield. You put a link in there and I am assuming since the company went out of business, Astroshield just cannot be found any longer. So my question to you is this- has anything you've used in recent years compared to Astroshield? Please share. My father gave me a can of it many years ago now, right around when it was discontinued. The stuff is legendary. I still have that can, but it's almost gone and frankly it's not looking like it used to. I used it yesterday and still got the same amazing (no lie, my car looks like a million bucks again) results so I'm on the quest again to find a replacement for when it's completely out. Again, very sorry to post this comment on completely unrelated topic... Thank you! Erin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
