I have two more that look like they are made of bronze with no numbers. This is my first Harley basket case and it looks to be a nice project.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

You need to buy a Moco parts book, and Manual. If this is your first Shovel, you'll need help.
No....almost anything won't fit. You might have Pan rockers arms there, or something aftermarket. You need to make sure, as well as making sure their tolorences are good, as to not grenade a motor after assembling it.
There's a specific front and back rocker arm. Shafts are the same, I believe.
Bushings need to be spec'd.
17392-66 is a intake rockerarm.
17389-66 is a exhaust rockerarm.
