Yeah, it's a business expense. Who knows that you didn't have a car with a 10,000 dollar engine that needs to be replaced?

Man is there such thing as "Overkill" when it comes to all these different 1.6 RR's. I've got four choices to pick from now. The Comp 1305-16, Comp 1105-16, Crane 11755-16 and the Crane 19005-16???

i really like my 19005-16. there build quality is amazing. im sure there all as nicely crafted however. itll eventually just come down to what you want. i chose the 19005-16 because there lighter then the steel rockers and a good price. that and there were afew people that ran them with great success.

The pro mags are super strong and supposed to be 5% lighter at the valve than other 1.6 rockers.

You can't go wrong with any of them. There have been a slew of people who've run the Pro Mags with no problems ever reported. I've personally run the HiTechs and the Gold Race and both have served me well.

I've had good luck with the Promags, but I've been interested in seeing
how the HiTechs or Ultras work for people.

I'm going to write the part #'s down on paper and throw them in a hat and draw. Whichever I choose is the one I shall run. Thanks again for the input guys! Now it's time to figure out the rotating assembly.
