Trickflow 21 rocker questions
Trickflow 21 rocker questions Can anybody tell me what rockers to order? I want 1.6s, narrow body. I read their were some issues with the self aligning rockers (causing the pushrods to rub). The 430hp top end kit doesn't use self aligning rockers.
However when I contacted trickflow they told me to use self aligning rockers... can somebody clarify?

Follow manufacturer's recommendation and avoid speculation/rumors. Remember though, at high rpm, stablizing the valvetrain to avoid flexing is important to good power and precise timing. Stepping up to better rockers, studs, girdles,..etc, is good insurance!

Verdad Gallardo Originally it had them on there. I have no issue buying another set of guide plates or running non self aligners but I am hung up on the trickflow tech suggesting self aligners
Dude that tech likely has never actually done anything himself
They hire any phone jockey they can find. You're probably the dude who takes the summit tech line as gospel as well? Lol
Just use NSA rockers, they are better regardless of what your trickflow home brah told you.
