    I have a 3400 bottom....3500 top.......Bens SC cam ........billet TB and and RSM kit.............so ......what rockers with LS^ springs do I go with......stockers or 1.7 or 1.8 or 1.9............has anyone actually installed these supposed rockers......is this a dream....is this shit.......wtf?

    Chris, go with stock rockers and excuse yourself from this thread.

    Designing a quality product doesn't happen overnight, which is why these rockers are not on anyone's car yet, nor has any money been taken from customers for the rocker arms. Do a little research on the company that is making the rockers and you will realize that they have a good reputation unlike the RSM Supercharger Kit that you have. Unfortunately even with the rocker arms I still think you are going to have problems with the bearing as the 1630ZZ bearings are only rated to a max of 6,000.

    I will be patiently waiting for the completion of these rockers and will make sure that I get my car on the dyno after they are completed for those curious on the gains.

    • WOW! What did we ever do to piss that guy off? From the get-go even. Sounds like he's looking for a fight here. It's obvious he has NOTHING to learn from nor contribute to this thread, or this site for that matter. If you don't like our "click" then go away and wine elsewhere instead of bashing the product being developed. I say ban his ass and deactivate his account!!!

I have been a member for a while but it seems that if you have the money you will take it but if you have an opinion it has to be cleared by the comitee........kinda like an HOA ,......I have one of those too. so I'll shut up and spend my money and you will accept it and the resy of you can dream your dreams and speculate your prospects amd in the mean time ...I will build an engine............have fun boys....you have done a dis servoce to this forum...............children..................sad

          • Umm I will split a set of 1.7 and 1.8's with someone!

            higher ratio rockers do work,they do achieve performance gains,they have been making them for years in V8 applications,I know because I have used them on a number of V8 projects,an engine be it V8 or V6 or even a 5hp briggs is simply an air pump!

            even God didn't create the world in 1 day!

            I believe!!!!

                You did mean to insult everyone here. Dont be an ass. If you dont care, then why were you still posting? Has anyone taken money yet? Please provide proof and not opinion. I have always been told that if you dont have something nice to say, then get the hell out of this thread, but maybe that is just me. You could very well be banned, not for having an opinion, but for trolling. If the site means alot to you, then you should keep your mouth shut about things you have no idea about like a good newbie does.

                They are getting made, but making just these rockers are not the only thing this company does. They are also opening up a brand new line of lifters, valves, springs, pushrods, and more. So before you post without reading a damn thing, do all of us a favor and dont post. YOU may have an opinion, but this was not clearly expressing it in a way as to be helpful to the community.

                And next time, maybe you should pay attention in grammar class. Your posts are almost as bad as your attitude.

                • Yikes... Its amazing how the COMING SOON... wasn't enough of a banner to tell him that to this date no one has these yet. BUT they are being R&D'd by a reputable company.

                  As one other said, sheer stupidity amazes me sometimes.

                  keep up the good work gectek and keep us updated... April is my Bday month... Rockers for Jonny

Comp 26986 springs on SI valves, stock ex manis. 2.5" exhaust. What would you recommend and why? I am very interested in this but just want to have a good base to make a decision from. Thanks alot.
                    Anyone? Not trying to be a pain, I am just looking for an answer so I can start ferreting my cash away for these. Please let me know or tell me if I am being a pain.

                      • It likes the 1.8/1.8 on the 1393, making it .594 lift. Thats fine with the 26986 springs.

                        1.8 rockers on a stock cam or near stock lift cam is fine with the LS6 springs.

                          Might you be able to answer what the lift would be on a stock cam with these,or I might have missed that somewhere in the 22 pages.. O with these a person needs to change springs as well... I bet that is fun on the back side of the motor with everything still in place:P

                            • .484 lift with 1.8 rockers. You have .430 stock, divide by 1.6, times 1.8. That is how the lift work, lobe lift times ratio = valve lift.
