Default Modified LS1 Rocker Arms(new Bearings)

OK I know some of you out there do not use aftermarket rockers simply because they are a little heavier over the tip. Well we are going to offer a set of modified stock LS1 rockers done by Harland Sharp. The new rockers will have a new trenion and new bearings with provisions for clips so there is absolutly no chance the bearings can come out. They will use the stock rocker bodies. We will offer them on an exchange basis-send in your rockers we will send you a set rebuilt or as a core charge. We can also offer different ratio when it is done change your stock rockers to a 1.8.

Thanks and have a great weekend

We have yet to determine the costs just wanted to see if there was adaquate interest to make it happen. We have the correct bearings to make it work. Why would you go this way over a new set?

I'd only do it if it was significantly cheaper than new one's. Around $100 or so. Otherwise the HS's are the way to go for $300.

Is installing the bearing kit something someone with above average mechanical ability can do at home? If so, you might just consider selling a kit for the DIY'er. I'd go for that.

No it will require machining.

Harland is still in the process of machining the stock rockers for a ratio change it is posible just want to be sure it all goes smoothly. We can do your SLP rockers too.

Either as a kit with all the parts, tool and instructions. With a press the customer can install these himself.
Total rebuid kit $160.00

Or send in your rockers on an exchange basis or for a core.
Kit installed $200.00

Let me know what you think
