    So how does the ratio change ? The store says from 1.5-1 to 2-1. Do they change with speed and how is that done ? Or are they somehow altered to change the ratio ? It also states that the duration changes at higher rpm. Just need some enlightenment. The initial price is a real bargain.

      I'm still in the process of learning this stuff my self so someone correct me if i'm wrong but isn't the ratio changed by moving the fulcrum of the rocker either towards the valve side of the rocker to lower the ratio then towards the pushrod side to raise it?

      As far as duration i'm clueless.

          Maybe yall shouldnt believe all you see/hear on the internet. Seems like alot of people were an april's fool. This really got out of hand.

          I HAD NO PART IN THIS. BUT, I did know about it earlier today, and kept my mouth shut. It was pretty entertaining.

          The rockers are still on track. Ill let yall know more tomorrow.

              They are nothing like what is in that add. They are ONE ratio from start to end of valve opening event. There is no LS10. If they are bolt on style, then they are non adjustable. So, like i said earlier, they are still on track.

              For some reason some people forget that you will also be able to get them in stock ratio as well. They will provide a descent gain just bolt on as well. That way, if you are maxed out somewhat on lift, like kwhauck is, you can still benefit.
