Default Trick flow roller rockers

Do these rocker arms get installed any special way. Do they have a rounded and a flat side in which they sit on the stud? If so, the flat side should point up right?

I was under the impression that there was only one proper way to install a stud mounted rocker....Am I missing something?

The "hump" points down....That's about the simplest explanation I can give you.

Cool, thanks. Yeah I was not aware of that when I installed them, but it looks like somehow they were all installed right.

Sorry, I actually had a question... I forgot this is a forum and you arent supposed to ask questions on forums.. I will just start being a smart *** to and then no one will come here anymore because everyone will be smart asses, and theywill beafraid to ask a simple question.... I wish someone would ban your *** so that the rest of the people here could actually learn something. You have 11000 posts, and I bet 10999 of them were worthless and a waste of peoples time.

Tell ya what, you go to this link, which is the directions that I recieved from trick flow, and find where it states to install the rockers with the flat side up, and I will eat my words.

If you werent so quick to post your smart *** remarks, maybe you would have ready the origianl questions. This was about which way the center of the rocker fases. Round side up or down on the stud. Id ont even know wtf that picture has anything to do with that.

So to me it looks like you need to stfu.

Thanks madman, YOU knew what I was talking about and gave me the answer I was looking for. They say that it can be installed with the flat side up (which is wrong). It supposedly doesnt really hurt performnce, but it causes wear. I just needed to make sure, as some roller rockers are flat on both sides, so it does not matter when installing them. I didnt want to pull the valve covers back off if that was the case.
