buy new rockers??
hey guys, got a question..should i buy new rockers? i am going to be putting my motor back together as soon as my heads get back from the shop. Going to put in a hotcam with new springs also. dont plan on revving the motor past 67-6800.. they have 72000 miles on them along with the lifters..i figured i might as well replace the lifters since they got that many miles on them but what about the rockers? Horsepower is not THAT big of a factor considering the price of new rockers..what does it gain 5-7 rwhp for like 400-500 bucks? sure i am like everyone else that would like the most power but i can live without those few ponies for that kind of cheese.. (hince the hotcam instead of a real cam..let the flames begin )its more of a safety thing..i keep hearing about failed bearings with the stock rockers and such..going to great meausres to insure everything is perfect when i stab this motor back in, dont want a bad rocker to mess anything up. so what do you think? how many miles on the stockers until they need repalced?
thanks
