Is anybody out there in the saloon class running valve spring oil spray bars, in alloy rocker covers (fitted with stud girdles)?

stud girdles are illegal
T11-2-39 Rockers (a) Rocker Configuration is to be as per OE (i) shaft mounted must remain so, (ii) stud mounted must remain so. (b) Engines originally manufactured with pressed steel rockers:- (i) can have the rocker stud slot lengthened. (ii) no other modifications permitted. (c) Roller Rockers not permitted. (d) Titanium Valve Spring Retainers are permitted.

(d) Titanium Valve Spring Retainers are permitted. the ubove rule says Rockers and thats where it ends . stud girdles are not rockers. screw in studs are not rockers. item b (i) can have rocker slot lengthened and b(ii) no other modifications permitted (this is to the rocker nothing else and meens you cant widen the slot to run 7/16 studs or run aftermarket rockers made with 7/16 stud slots) which the top four nz saloons were running at nzs in Auckland ,7/16 studs reinforce the rocker gear as do stud girdles used on 3/8 studs, no small block chev was produced with 7/16 studs STD no small block chev was fitted with posi locks std, the list goes on and we havent even got below the head gaskets yet

DELETE - T11-2-39 Rockers (a) Rocker Configuration is to be as per OE (i) shaft mounted must remain so, (ii) stud mounted must remain so. (b) Engines originally manufactured with pressed steel rockers:- (i) can have the rocker stud slot lengthened. (ii) no other modifications permitted. (c) Roller Rockers not permitted. (d) Titanium Valve Spring Retainers are permitted. AND REPLACE WITH - T11-2-39 Rockers (a) Engines originally manufactured with Pressed Steel Rockers must remain so. (b) Engines originally manufactured with Pressed Steel Rockers can have the rocker stud slot lengthened. (c) Overhead cam engines originally manufactured with Roller Rockers must remain so and may only use the OE Rocker for that engine. (d) Overhead cam engines originally manufactured with Bucket type Cam Followers must remain so. (e) Titanium Valve Spring Retainers are permitted. In Summary, the revised rule set above in conjunction with: Rule T11-2-34 (d) OE Engine can be modified except where prohibited in this section. Allows for stud girdles and varying stud sizes to be permitted in the Saloon class for the remainder of the 2016/17 season.
