im not positive of the numbers right now but i have them somewhere. i believe it is .571/??? at 112 lsa. aside from that what would be the problem with running a 1.8 rocker? i dont really know a whole lot about them...

If your cam lift is .571 with stock ratio (1.7) rocker arms, with 1.8s you'll be at ~.605, which is most likely too much lift, not to mention some cam manufaturers recommend NOT using 1.8s due to the fast ramps. Definitely need to check P o V with those. Also, $699

Almost every sponsor right over there should be able to help you out. MTI has them listed on their website off hand for $695
FWIW the stock rockers are very good pieces

good pieces, have them in 04 vette with 2 k miles, no problems yet. installing vhp boss2 cam, ls6 heads, ati damper with original crane 1.8 rockers, dual crane springs,dynatech w/cats and magnaflow. cam is small by today's standards, but .590 lift with these rockers. using .042 head gasket with pistons out .007, should be a ok combination with VHP tuner

so i oredered the jessel non-ajdustable shaft mounts rockers today and hoping to see them next friday...then maybe the car will be able to be driven...hope all works out well with these...by the way the cam i am running is a 228/224 .591/.583 112 lsa...should be fine with a 1.7 ratio rocker right?
git_sum, i tried the patriot shaft mount rockers that i had and one of the shafts broke in half while we were installing them so im gonna stay away from more patriot stuff. not to say that it is bad, i love the heads i have!
