Roller Rockers

Codeman · November 9th, 2009, 09:59 PM

Ok so someone on here told me that roller rockers will help free up some power. They seem fairly simple to install. I just have a couple questions where are some good sites to get them. And is 1.70 ratio the most you can go? What is stock? Also if I get them the stock pushrods should be fine shouldn't they? And last do you have to adjust the lash on them if so how? Is it just by putting each cylinder at tdc and torquing?

atlanticblue98 · November 9th, 2009, 10:31 PM

the stock ratio is 1.73

Codeman · November 9th, 2009, 10:33 PM

ok so i will want to go with 1.73 roller rockers. Where is a good place to get them and what about the other questions?

atlanticblue98 · November 9th, 2009, 10:45 PM

give a call to Tom at Super Six Motorsports

Codeman · November 9th, 2009, 11:02 PM

well i already looked at them and they seemed really $ so that is why i was wondering if there was anyother place.

I don't know how much you wanna spend but these seem pretty nice

Codeman · November 9th, 2009, 11:59 PM

Yep

I run 1.8 RR from harland sharp.

Codeman · November 10th, 2009, 02:46 PM

did you upgrade pushrods? or anything. ik you have a sc and stuff idk if you got the stock cam? I just want to know if i will need hardened push rods or not? and will the stock springs work fine since you will be getting more lift?

should all work fine. We installed 1.8's before we did the cam or anything else.

oh yes. one of the best bolt-ons i did. a little harder to install than others but the high end picked up greatly after them. RR's and UDP together are the best bolt-on mods IMO for the money.

Do I need adjustable roller rockers if I'm planning a cam swap? Or is it more beneficial? And btw stangcharger, where did you get your harland sharp rr's? So far the only real option I'm looking at is Morana for $320.

harland sharp distributes through summit and jegs as well.

9986paulk · November 10th, 2009, 06:37 PM

Am I going to have to get them ordered, because I didn't find them in a search. And any opinions on the hydraulic roller lifters?

Codeman · November 11th, 2009, 02:04 PM

ya same questions as above lol

NorCalWhtHrse · November 11th, 2009, 02:30 PM

is there a rr write up for noobs?

edit:

just did some reading... seems like a relatively easy bolt on? do you need a tune after this?

9986paulk · November 11th, 2009, 05:24 PM

nope, you don't need a tune

9986paulk · November 11th, 2009, 05:24 PM

And I asked them at summit...they can order them for $310.
And Still looking for an answer as to whether I need adjustable ones if I'm doing a cam, or if it's a good idea.
