Default I need help identifying a part to get my mustang running!

So I've been working with my dad on my 1966 mustang coupe (200cu i6 ) for almost 2 years now on and off but my dad was diagnosed with cancer an has been on chemo for a couple of months now so the work on a stang has come to a stand still :/
If somebody could inform me of the name of this part and where I could buy that would be amazing

Looks like the push rod adjuster screw has been broken off in the rocker arm. If you can get the adjuster out, you need a new screw and nut. If not you need to replace the arm assembly with screw and lock nut. I would pull the arm off and check that the pivot shaft has not cracked. Had a '63 Mercury wagon that the end of the shaft broke off.

Prayers for your Dad.

that broken nut is available separately as is all the parts on the arm.

Pioneer should make the screw. Go to the auto parts store and ask for a rocker arm adjusting screw from a 1967 Ford fairlane 427 or 1968 Mercury Cougar GTE 427.

this guy as all the rocker arm pieces and very few people know about him and his prices are C H E A P. he can give you the part number you need to give to the auto store if they can not find it.
