Comp Cams #26918 beehives springs, #1305-16 pro magnum roller rockers, and their magnum series pushrods are working good for me.

Crowers is also a good one.

I have crane gold 1.6 roller rockers #, and NIB crane #10308-1 dual springs. The roller rockers would work great for you. The springs should work good for you as well.

I'll give ya a good deal on both.

26928-16 Beehive Springs

Proper length One piece chromoly pushrods

I am running the same 503 cam and wanted the most bulletproof parts available. I believe that list is exactly that.

You really dont need NSA Rockers with that cam or beehives but if you want the best I would go with those. Comp Cams 1305-16 Rockers by far along with PAC 1218 or even better 1518 Valvesprings. I wouldnt mess with the 918's because of the story with them but the PAC 1218's are the same as the 918's just not built by a company in Mexico and the 1518's the same but are nitrided for added strength. As far as pushrods I would check the length and when you know the correct length you should go with the Trick Flow chromemoly pushrods.

If you don't want the noise, or feel like fidgeting with roller adjustments, Crane's 1.6 stamped are the best around. They are actually a TRUE 1.6 ratio, instead of other stamped which are like 1.5 (stock are 1.4~ >_>). Also, they are 1.6 the whole time, where as stock, and others, change throughout lift. Downside is they are $150~, which for a bit more you get RRs.
