I am still looking for a set of roller tip rockers for a 409 with 3/8s studs

I don't know of anyone making them. Closest you might find is a Comp bbc, 1.7, but it's 7/16.
Scorpion makes a roller rocker with the correct 1.75 ratio and a 3/8 stud. Just make sure the stud is long enough.
I sell them for under $400.

Same ratio, differant size. On the stock rockers, the W motors and 6 cylinders use the same ball. W stamped steel are probably discontinued.

If you use the Show Cars part mentioned above, https://show-cars.com/product/2568, make sure the spherical shape of the ball matches the pocket of the Comp Cams rocker. The balls are not a Comp Cams part. They do not make a 3/8 ball other than the ones that fit a small block rocker. Just a word of caution.

SBC balls are not the same as W motors and 6cylinders.
They used to list individual components of the rocker kits and the parts could be biught seperately.
