Roller rockers?


Hey guys, I was recently told by a friend that new roller rockers would be a good way to pull some extra horses out of my V6. I was looking into a 1.8 set over at Tom Morana Racing that claims 15-18 HP, but how much of that would I actually be seeing? I mean, technically speaking they ought to give some sort of gain, but 18 HP seems a bit much... Can anyone offer some insight into what I can actually expect from these things on a single-port?

thats well crazy in my opinion... if you get a new cam new lifters and rollers and push rods you might see a total of 40 horse power... if you get a great cam and all the other needed parts of the equation are their

18 is a little high...that might be with a new cam and lifters also...but roller rockers just take a lot of friction out of the top end...you might see gains of about ~5-8
