Jesel 1:8 rockers? Does anyone have any experiance with these rockers? I have been contemplating putting them on my SS but am a little unsure if the bang is going to be worth the buck. Will there be any increase in power with these like when I went to the 1:6's on my old LT motor. Any info would be appreciated.

Re: Jesel 1:8 rockers? If you are running hydraulic lifters, the bang is unquestionably not worth the bucks.
Jesel Rockers 1000-1300 (theres a street or a race set)
spacers for rocker panels 300
longer wires 100
new pushrods 125
--------------------------
1525-1825
for, with the stock cam, perhaps 10-15hp. And then you are really limited when you go aftermarket cam because most are deigned to run enough lift with 1.7s, which is too much lift with 1.8s.
Now...if you are doing a sollid roller conversion...they are worth every penny. Necessary in fact..

Not for stock valve covers, I'm sure
