Roller Rockers, 1.5 or 1.6

[geoffinbc]

Mis matching springs if fine. As long as the spring you choose meets the requirement of the valvetrain.

It is always a mistake to mix and match valvetrain bits from different manufacturers.

If you want to go with 1.6, call Comp and ask them which springs they sell will work with the cam you have and 1.6 rockers. Doing otherwise can result in misfortune of the big bang variety.

I run 1.6 in my turbo 3.2 with a custom cam done by Comp, and regular 1.5 (both using Comp roller rockers) on my 3.4 engine in the sports car with a 272 cam.

Yep that's the one.

Oh yeah, you mean that half round piece that goes under the nut.

[1988GTU]

There's a little round like bearing that sits in the rocker, very inexpensive and rarely ever go bad. They can be purchased from your local parts store or you can reuse yours. No, I am not a dealer.

[Ray Hamilton]

Yeah roller tip. Thats what I'm going to get. 1988GTU, what bearings? And are you a dealer?

These guys have the best price I've seen for CompCams rockers

Those re not full rollers.

[1988GTU]

I'll match that price. Mine just don't come with the bearings, although they do come with the studs and nuts.

I have ran a set of 1.6 roller tips and they were pretty noticeable for power gains on the butt dyno. They didn't make any abnormal noises compared to stock. I actually am selling a set here: http://60degreev6.com/forum/showthread.php?t=39720
They will not work for what the next plan is set to be, that is the only reason why I am selling them.

they may click if you run a solid roller cam.

[torq455]

nope. they don't click in my car. if they click then you don't have the lifter preload adjusted correctly.

[Ray Hamilton]

I read something else. That the roller rockers "click". Ever hear of that?

[torq455]

even with 1.6 rockers you'll be fine as long as your valve springs can take that lift with that duration.
