Default Rocker Arms...

Who sells the Upgraded stock Rocker Arms? Is it Harland Sharp?

I have some YT's but I am thinking about just getting rid of those, and going with the Rebuilt stockers, I hear they are better anyways...

Anybody?

If you already have the new version YT, why not stick with them? It is Harland Sharp that does the rebuilds though.

I have the old version.

Do you have to send them to them or do they just sell them, and you send them your old ones?

Default Harland Sharpe!

Harland Sharpe rebuilt my stock rockers. Very nice product and fast turnaround.

I sent an old set to be rebuilt.

Contact Nasty N8 to set it up.

Why on earth would you do this? Properly set up, the YT's will provide a much better wipe pattern and much lower valve guide wear than the stock rockers ever will. They are also stiffer than the stock rockers and translate more cam motion to the valve than the stockers will.

I've been very happy with my HS rebuilds that I did through Nasty Nate. I think it's been shown time and again that the OEM rockers have virtually the lowest tip weight of any rocker made. Wipe pattern is determined by shimming.
