Roller Rockers & Lifters
Well, in addition to the $2600 for heads and 224 Comp cam, Rollmaster double roller chain, ARP bolts and Manley pushrods I just unloaded $1130 for oil pump, water pump, gaskets, hoses, seals, and few other internal engine parts to replace when I finish the swap out.
Question 1 - Are roller rockers worth the money or should I just replace my existing ones with a new set of factory rocker arms? Not sure about moving my old rockers onto the new heads.
Question 2 - Thinking about replacing all the hydraulic lifters while I'm in there. Is it necessary or just a waste of $$. With 83K miles on the engine I was thinking about maintenance items to hit while I'm in the engine
Appreciate your time and suggestions.
Thanks

Lifters + YES They are cheap and easy to do with the heads off.
Rockers - send out the stockers to Harland Sharp and have them rebuilt for 225 and don't look back.
