Default Who does the Comp Truniun upgrade

I want to get a new set of rockers w/the upgrade and be able to send my old ones in so I don't have to wait for the upgrade and shipping and etc...

Who does this already?

Ive done a few sets now myself. You need a press, itll take you about an 1-1.5 hrs total to setup, knock out, press in, and clean up.

It's about an hour or two tops job. One person can disassemble the rocker arms while the other assemble them back. All are needed is what I put on the triunion upgrade write up.

Yes and no. Spectacle is officially closed but it is being restructured to open back up. We have one set of rockers completely ready to ship with the trunion upgrade. Will sell for $210 shipped w/ no core return necessary. Being that Spectacle is closed for the time being, this is not a business sale....it's a personal sale. We will be making a thread shortly of many garage sale items that are left over. If anyone wants this set, drop a PM with some contact info.

Thanks
