1.8 rockers will give it .556" lift. You'll need more valvespring than what the hotcam kit comes with <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

This will be an interesting experiment.

One thing to remember though, the big draw to the Hotcam is price... Once you start adding aftermarket valvesprings and rockers maybe you could have just used an aftermaket cam after all.

Please don't take this as a flame. I will definitely be looking for your results. I know there are those who would like to know how good you can make this cam perform...

sounds like a GOOD combo, but i would do 220/218 or 222/220 on a 111LSA with like a .550 lift, that would be a sweet wicked cam...
