1.7 rocker arms
1.7 rocker arms What all do I have to do in order to run 1.7 rocker arms? Will they fit with the stock valve covers that have been modified? Also which ones are you all running what would be the cheaper route on doing these?
Scorpion 1.7's are nice. You will need, at a minimum, a nice set of springs, like Comp 918's or PAC 1218's. I would also suggest getting ARP 7/16" rocker arm studs and Trickflow guideplates, and Trickflow chromemoly pushrods.
I'm going to be running Angus Racing 1.7RR's. But, I only got them because I got a really good price and they have less than 1000 miles on them. For the springs, I just bought the Patriot Gold kit. Still waiting to get everything put in though.
I have upgraded springs already along with chromemoly pushrods and cc503 cam with 1.6s. Just thought about doing the 1.7s to get a little more out of the cam and wanted to know what all i need! Also has anyone ran them with the stock valve covers or aftermarket ones needed? My heads are setup for the 3/8 studs do i need to change to the 7/16 stud?
