A question to the masses but mainly for the LT1 type engine. I have heard of swapping a roller rocker with 1.6 ratio in place of the stamped 1.5 ratio non-roller rocker to increase HP. I have read that Crane Cams has the only replacement type roller rocker that will fit under the stock valve covers. All others need modifications to the cover or an aftermarket style valve cover to accommodate. I have also heard that the GM style roller rocker found on the LT4 is self aligning but needs a guide plate to stabilize. Could this be a potential swap? I'm sure someone has done this swap. Also, if only the rocker arm swap is done, (1.6 for the 1.5) what kind of HP and Torque increas can be expected?
Thanks in advance for your comments.
