          I deffinately will get a set. I just was hoping to save a little money if possible. The stock cam with .484 lift would be quite nice for a turbo setup. I guess I need to start saving $20 a week. Haha!

          Also, will these rockers require custom pushrods?

            well i will try to keep prices down as much as possible, but i dont think that they higher ratios will cost much more than the lower ones...ie 1.8 price wouldnt be far off from the 1.6 price, but there will be some, they take more engineering and material to a point...

              Pushrod length depends on the cam. These rockers shoudln't require anything but installation.

                unless somone wants to buy my crane gold's, then you can put me down for a set!

                  I'm looking forward to these too. I don't have the mechanical confidence to change a cam but higher ratio rockers are the next best thing.

                    But these will require stiffer than stock springs though.

                        I would recommend stiffer springs with better coil bind properties for anything that isn't stock. Stock springs are a bit pathetic.

                            Nothing wrong with better springs, but I was just referring to the post above that talked about a cam being daunting possibly. I think sliding in a cam would be easier than messing with springs under tension, lol. Can you change springs without pulling the motor? Or is there not enough room?

                              you can change springs without pulling the heads.

                              use something like this


                              if you use the C clamp style then you have to pull the head.

                                Yeah, and if you get a regular rocker stud, you can use the fulcrum style to compress the springs. I don't care for the style in the pic you posted but they do work.
