Let us know if you need anything else!

Thanks again!

Oh will do. Unfortunately the clutch is about shot so that is next weekends project. The clutch went out shortly after ordering the parts for the cam. We got the monster clutch level 2 package, compliments of Teaxs speed as well.

How do yall think the stock rockers will hold up to this cam? Torquer V2 just for reference. Original motor has 103K on it.

They will hold. The stock rockers are pretty strong and built pretty well. I dont think you will have any problems with those.

Stock rockers will be fine. The only thing that could happen is they might kick the needle bearings out one day. If you are worried about them, do the Comp trunion upgrade and you should be set. The factory rockers are nice w/ a strong body and weigh less then just about anything else you could put on it! That's the way I would go!
