Default T1 & 1.8 rockers

Would the springs that come with the T1 package be ok to use with the Comp 1.8 rocker arms? Or do the 1.8's not add enough lift to make a difference.

Thanks
Alan

your lift would be .590

IMO, I would only use dual springs for that much lift. Then you definitely have to check for piston to valve clearance. I wouldn't even attempt with the hassle if I were you. <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

I really think that this is too much ratio and I would aviod it. 1.7 is fine.
