Those are huge pictures.
All the shaft does is keep them from turning on the valve. They are completly stable. The bearing shaft the rockers pivot on is much larger. These rockers are 10 grams lighter than stock. Have no extra wait over the nose as the YT do. They have used the same style rocker in Mustang racing for years without any problems.

Sorry abou the large pics guys. but if you wanted a close up, im your man!
You can really see detail if you were interested, but Im running the 1.7's.

That center shaft that connect the two rockers is trick and easy. I have no worried about deflection to the sides. The factory rockers only use that little rail that goes across to keep them straight. I think the shaft is way stronger than the factory setup. I just wish i had clear valvecovers so i could see them all the time. They sure look good compared to factory stuff.

All together that set up looks good. But why the alum intake? Heat soak will cost u dearly !
If you like the color, get a 01/02 LS1 0r LS6 intake and paint it.

Why are these rockers, when compared to others like the Yella Terras...less expensive? Quality? Is it because they're the new kid on the block?
