Roller rockers for LS1 - without higher lift I want to be able to do a better or easier job of adjusting my valve lash as well as getting the benefits of the roller rocker tips. What is out there that I can buy. I know of Crane's product but with 5.3L heads, milled very little (~.10), and TR224 cam, I would think the 1.8 ratio would be to great with my setup and I should stay at the stock 1.7.

Re: Roller rockers for LS1 - without higher lift Jesel makes 1.7 and 1.9 and 2.1. I was thinking about going bigger just because i have to buy new rockers for my new heads anyways. Why spend the money on 1.7s when you can get 1.9s or 2.1s for the same price that you have to pay anyways.

Re: Roller rockers for LS1 - without higher lift I would think that the higher ratio with the lifts of the cams and the milling of the heads would effect the valve to piston clearance. And I don't want to have to do anything to the pistons.
