Im pointing out that 1.5's are a waste of time and money. You keep telling him 1.5's are fine, they are a waste of money for his setup imo. Why do mods that don't show gains? So you can tell people you have all these mods and the car is no faster? as you pointed out, nobody wants to buy 1.5's, so resale will be tough as well.

Why not buy something once and just switch it over when you do the swap. I recommend the Comp High Tech Stainless rockers as well. Also 1.5s are a complete waste of money on either set up IMO.
Yessir x2!

based on the info given i gave him an unbiased recommendation. i also provided part numbers for him to make his own decision. you took the justifying part of my post about changing springs to accomodate the 1.6 rockers then told me i need to read because he is putting in a cam. keep the springs 1.5 rockers, change to higher lift springs use 1.6. why is it you are trying to make me look like i dont know what i am talking about?

You are the only one telling him to get 1.5 rockers, wich he should not! It's plain and simple. Everyone else thats posted in here besides you is saying the same thing. Im not making it look like you don't know what you are talking about, you are lol. Even if he sticks with the stock springs, the 1.5's are a waste of money! Everyone else has confirmed that as well, so lets move on!

No way! You'd cause all kinds of problems. It's one or the other - not both.
