We have not had time to put the Low Lash or the solids on yet. It will be added soon.

There's a set of Comp 1.8 cathedral port shaft rockers on http://www.ebay.com/itm/Comp-Cams-1-8-Shaft-Rockers-LS1-LS2-/321594622778?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4ae088833a&vxp=mtr right now, starting at $400 with no reserve. Not mine, but could be a good deal for someone...

Yes, thats all good. And less maintenance with 20k miles. Horsepower difference I meant on a more race oriented application. Anyone using these low lash roller in their race car?

We do quite a few now from drag racing to offshore boats almost any application. The Low Lash is just a little cleaner with less lash the valve train lifters,pushrods,rockers are not flopping around as much as a std roller. We can make a LLR just as aggressive as a std roller if we want. It's like anything else it's hard for some people the change one reason is the numbers look different when you spec a cam.

Obviously mine isn't a dedicated race car but I think my results of the llr speak for themselves especially considering I only had mildly ported 241 heads and an almost full weight street car. We will see how she does this season with some boost and trick flow heads. I can't see how a low lash will make more power than a standard roller but I am convinced that a stable valve train is a HUGE benefit. I am no expert, just an end user. I am certain that Kip won't steer you wrong but you should talk to him directly
