Gang, I'm looking for some collective wisdom here. I know old school small block Chevys pretty well but know little about the LT1. My limited research indicates that stock rockers are 1.5:1. Has anybody installed the 1.6:1 aftermarket rocker on a bone stock LT1? What warnings could you offer? Piston interference?
What benefits in terms of horsepower/torque could one expect. I would like to quantify the horsepower/dollar ratio.
Given that a set of such rockers with roller tips are available from Jegs for $189 list what can I expect by increasing the lift and some duration by increasing the lift by doing this?
What are your suggestions? What are your experiences? Difficulty won't be an issue but lack of measurable results will be. Guide me boys if you will!
I wait to learn at the old Corvette hands knees! (No age shot intended as I am nearing sixty!);help
