Default Rocker Arms

Is there any reason that the Trick Flow Ford 1.7 3/8" roller rocker arms could not be used in a LS1? Same ratio, same bolt diameter, why not....

even thought the ratio is the same, the length might not be the same. That would put the rocker tip in the wrong place in relation to the valve tip.
You'd have to measure and try it.

I don't know what you are spending on those rockers, but can tell you for a very reasonable price ($500 shipped) you can buy Yella Terra 1.7 roller rockers that kick ***. Just installed them and all I got to say is...IMPRESSED! Contact Raging Motorsports -------------------->>>
@913-393-1157. I know he has one set left.
BTW, snap to install.
