Contact LGM Racing Development I know he bought Probes tooling to do the shaft rockers. I talked to them about it when I bought my shaft rockers. Maybe they could help you out.

I could be mistaken, but I don't think that's a Probe rocker. Compared to the Probe rockers that I have seen, your rocker arm has a slightly different rocker body shape (particularly along the top and at the nose) and a different roller pin. But anything's possible.

(By the way, based on the wear/damage in the rocker slot as viewed from both top and bottom, it looks as though someone was using pushrods that were way too short for the rocker arm's intended application.)

They look more to me more like an old Angus Racing (Florida) rocker arm, circa 1990 or so. To view a 2-page Speedtalk thread with a similar rocker, click on this link: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=43613
