I am glad you posted as I have thought about these myself. Trying to maximize the RWHP without a Cam, Heads, etc... The HP you gained is right on the money as far as what I learned about these and the TQ gain is actually about twice what I would have expected.
They aren't going to win any 'Bang-for-the-Buck' votes - but you should have known that up front. They are to maximize a stock or stealth cam - pretty much anyway.
Two simple questions - #1 If you install these Rockers and Chromoly Push-rods, etc. - do you still qualify as "Internally Stock"? I would think you wouldn't - but this may actually be considered a "bolt-on" mod? Can anyone clarify this? #2 Would the 1.85 Rockers change the idle - maybe give a bit more "lope" to the engine? Thanks...

You would probably have seen more gain if you had headers and perhaps a better flowing exhaust. I assume you still have cats.
With your listed mods that's really not a bad gain. A larger cam would have been a cheaper way to go however.
