Hi Ken and all,
   I just called Scorpion to confirm and they are for a V6 (2.8) and 
not the Pedestal Mount V8's.  Looks like Harland Sharp is the only 
one that sells the pedestal mount V8 bolt-on roller rockers.

   Sincerely,
   Greg Taylor

   So how come these links refer to an AMC 'V' six, not inline six? Are they
thinking of the 2.8 or do they think all 6s are V-type? Don't see that part
number in the Chev section.

I believe Crane use to make pedestal roller Rockers setup for AMC and 
sell them though Mopar Performance also.
Now they seem to only sell standard roller rockers and a conversion 
kit that requires some one else guide plates.
Conversion to standard roller rockers can be done on most heads even 
without guide plates. It just depends on the heads.
You need small push rod holes. If you got big round ones like on 73 & 
74 heads then you need the guide plates or better
yet cut them up and use the 73 & 74 heads for door stops. LRDaum
