roller rockers Reduce side load on the valve stem and they increase the ratio from 1.3 to 1.5.
Are the worth the money....FUC NO!!!!!!

Re: roller rockers With the higher ratio you will get the valve opening like 14% more. They give gain but are expensive in the HP/$ category. BPS makes good rockers that don't require head/valve cover modification to install.

Re: roller rockers Yeah, you set them the same as stock. .004-.006. The older one's that BPS sold were supposed to be set looser than that, but I believe all the rest of the one's on the market are set to stock tolerance.

Re: roller rockers It's runnin' good bro. Turns like a mofo. I haven't taken it out since caddo, and the gov was set too low while I was out there. I updated my review though if you wanna check it out.
Been so hot I haven't got the few little things knocked out that I wanted to accomplish before I take it out again. I'll get a full review up soon as we get some cooler weather.
Haven't seen you around in a while. Looks like crawfish season was good to ya though.
