Need Help roller rocker selection
Need Help roller rocker selection Heres my setup
ls1 with 241head
Patriot Gold spring good for .650 lift
TSP Torquer V2 232 234 @ .595 .598 112lsa
1 3/4 long tube headers to custom exhaust 2 1/2" with x pipe
intake (I have the ls1 in an RX7)
what going on the car when it comes in
BBK SSI intake manifold
BBK 80mm TB
SLP 85mm maf
So my question is if im taking off the manifold I might as well install roller rockers, harden push rod. (some one told me I need them with my new cam) But which roller rockers should I go with 1.7 or 1.8 let me know I am new to the whole LSX engine.
BTW I searched and nothing came up with the setup I have
Thanks
Tony

I have heard the Jessels are top notch but pricey and the yella terra ultralights are not far behind with the Harland Sharps also being quality pieces. If I go TFS on heads I will be looking into this more so I am subscribing. Interesting thing thing is the stockers are a bout the lightest out there. HS will rebuild stockers and eliminate the needle bearing issue for $225. With a V2 I don't think you want to go 1.8 ratio cause it increases lift
correct me if im wrong but rr ration of 1.7 is the stock ratio right?
some one told me that roller rocker would let the engine rev faster and would be better then the traditional rocker (stock) also help with rasing the rev limit im taking my ls to 6800rpm
what would be my correct length for a push rod? 7.40 or 7.35?
also I was looking at trying these roller rockers let me know what you think they are the oem
