If they were a total of $200-250 it would be a good gain. But for the price its not all that.

those results sound about right. hardly anyone runs aftermarket RRs with smallish cams. stock units are great.

I am glad you posted as I have thought about these myself. Trying to maximize the RWHP without a Cam, Heads, etc... The HP you gained is right on the money as far as what I learned about these and the TQ gain is actually about twice what I would have expected.

They aren't going to win any 'Bang-for-the-Buck' votes - but you should have known that up front. They are to maximize a stock or stealth cam - pretty much anyway.

Two simple questions - #1 If you install these Rockers and Chromoly Push-rods, etc. - do you still qualify as "Internally Stock"? I would think you wouldn't - but this may actually be considered a "bolt-on" mod? Can anyone clarify this? #2 Would the 1.85 Rockers change the idle - maybe give a bit more "lope" to the engine? Thanks...

idle is still the same. i would say internally stock, they just bolted right on. the exhaust note changed a tad bit

no tuning and im throwing a 02 code also. they cleared it yesterday.
its was dyno, install and dyno. im gonna have my buddy who works at a dealership look at it.
not having headers is hurting results also.

You would probably have seen more gain if you had headers and perhaps a better flowing exhaust. I assume you still have cats.

With your listed mods that's really not a bad gain. A larger cam would have been a cheaper way to go however.
