Default 1.6 Rockers
Hey all
I have been thinking about changing the stock rockers in my 85 to self aligning 1.6 rollers.
I'm looking for some more power at autocross events.
worth doing?
Joe

Roller style rocker arms are just a really good idea, no matter how you look at them.

I have a '96 LT1 and had Scorpion 1.6 full roller rockers installed, along with LT4 valve springs and retainers. It made a VERY noticeable difference in power.

I used Vern's Chevy Service in Largo (727-585-0000). Vern is a recognized Corvette specialist and he did an awesome job. Materials came to just under $350.00 and Vern charged $400 for the install. Money well spent!
