Everyone with 3.8 v6's run the YT's and i have always heard GREAT things about them.

One question though do we have an offset rocker?

No, we have cathedral port heads. The rectangular port heads (LS3, etc.) have offset rockers because the intake port and valve were moved over to clear the pushrod bore, which is in the same location for all LSx engines.

Different heads, intakes, intake rockers... that's it I think.

Edit: I vote keep the stock rockers and swap cams... they cost about the same.
