Default Broke a damn rolloer rocker pedestal

Starting cranking on her on wasn't running right, after compression check showed none in #2I pulled the valve cover to find out I put the rocker on wrong. I didn't know it had a round and a flat spot for the bolt. It got turned 180 on me and broke the pedestal. Only one got installed wrong. I hope I can buy just this piece.

I depends on who makes the roller rocker?? you'll have to call the manufactorer line crane cams direct, or comp cams ect..ect.ect....... I know you can buy ford racing roller rockers through summit as a pair that's the only way you can usually get the parts as I trashed 2 roller tips on mine and they wouldn't sell just the bearings had to buy a pair of roller rockers for 60.00 dollars and they came with the pedastals
