Is there truth to that statement or is it bullshit

Its marketing. It's no truer or false than it is for any other rocker. In fact, a quality rocker will make more power and be more reliable every time. Harland Sharp is hardly what I would call top of the line. But they work for some I suppose.

I would say what is your price budget? And why are you switching rr's and keeping a stock cam?

i dont want to go to all the trouble of doing a cam swap (remove water pump, opti, timing chain cover, timing chain, intake manifold, lifters, ect ect ... more crap that could not go back together the right way/leak) rockers all i have to do is take off valve covers and i am there new springs, rockers, maybe pushrods if i need them for the 1.7rr's and better looking valve covers then i am done

plus i never have been a huge fan of the lumpy cam sound,

i like a normal sounding car that will surprise people. if you hear a cam people think that is a fast car. they dont race you or if they do they think that you automatically run 10's

i am just looking for a low to mid 12 sec car on boltons no spray

So what are the top three rockers in order for the lt1

There are no "top 3 rockers". You get what you pay for.

Comp Ultra Pro Mags are nice

After two sets of Comp Promags, I still favor the Scorpions.

LOL, ok...

I didnt say anything about pro mags. I said ultra pro mags in the first place.

I have a set of scorpions and I think they're absolute junk. They're no different than any other CHEAP rocker you can go buy.

Doesnt have to be lumpy, cc503 at the right idle isnt bad, lt4 hotcam deff isnt bad, Crane 227 sounds almost stock...but i still might have to call you gay for not likeing it!

i like it on pre 1980's cars ... "modern" cars i like to idle smooth and soft the scream like a beast when you get on it.

IMO unless you build you're self a VERY VERY strong valvetrain setup a 1.7 rocker will cause issues due to the added stress on the valve train.........the leverage point is moved so far back on a 1.7 rocker that it adds much more stress to the pushrods, lifters, cam and rocker studs........personally it is not worth the trouble if you were running a solid shaft setup id say ok....but in this case i'd go 1.6's and find urself a nice cam instead with the extra money....

There is a LOT of room between stock and lumpy, to do 1.7s in order to avoid a aftermarket cam because it will be lumpy is just missguided at best.

what he said^

I'd vote 1.6 rockers. They will make it easier to pick a cam if you decide to. I know you said you don't want to now, but that might change.

In that case, wouldn't the top 3 rockers be the 3 most expensive...
