Keeping the rockers and valvetrain rock-solid and locked in place is achieved by using Jesel stud girdles made specifically for the SR-71 heads, along with a set of Comp Pro Magnum roller rockers. The hydraulic roller cam is a Comp stick that comes in at 255/270 duration with lift of 0.675-inch on a 108 LSA. You can also see the ARP hardware used to keep it all together.

Those gold plated 'things to stop the rockers wiggling about' as they are known in the trade are very ugly. So what are they called?

Does that fit within the definition of "stud girdle"?
