I now have Jesel shaft mount 1.6's which are overkill for most people but I do recommend the CC ProMag 7/16 1.6 rockers. Used them for many years with great results. They are easy to set, quiet when running, and strong. I believe they are the best bang for the buck.

what are beehive springs? or those aftermarket or stock?

 

aftermarket. made by comp cams #918

 

ok thanx!

 

I ran sa comp pro mags and the sa tabs got chewed up then I switched to non sa promags with gmpp guideplates(only ones you should use) and everything was perfect this was with comp 918s and 10 degree locks with tit retainers

 

Wow nobody running the crane golds? Thats what I got through a trade.

 

Crane golds are good too

 

does anyone make a valvetrain kit for lt1 motors besides GMPP??
I have been looking around and cant seem to find any. i priced the parts seperate and it added up way too quick.

 

Crane has a good spring kit, but nothing for the entire valvetrain. There are too many parts and every setup needs something different.

 

i found this on advanced inductions website:
do you think this is worth it compared to the lt4 hot cam kit??
High-Performance Hydraulic Roller Kit:

GM 12371042 Hi-Performance Roller Lifter Kit

ARP 7/16" Pro Series Rocker Studs

GM 14011051 Hardened Steel Guideplate

CC1305 Pro-Magnum Rocker Arm 1.6 Ratio

CC7202 Hi-Tech Pushrod Length Checking Tool

Ai 4130 One Piece ChromMoly Hardened Pushrods 5/16" x 7.xxx, .080 Wall Thickness
(For Correct Valve Train Geometry You Must Measure)

Cost - $725
Add a Comp High-Tech Race double roller timing set to any package - $60

 

Crane Golds here. Have yet to have an issue 10,000 miles with a solid roller.

 

1.7 harlan sharps

 

going between pro mags or crower. Got a good deal on both. Cant decide.

 

I run the Crane Golds. I used them in my bolt-on set-up for about 5,000 miles. They are in my stroker now with no problems.

 

I run crane energizers. NSA 1.6 gm guideplates with trick flow pushrods and lt4 valve springs, stock cam/lifters

 

I've heard more good things about pro mags, but I have seen a good deal for crowers recently. They look pretty similar.

As far as the kit, if you're using the stock untouched heads and block, you won't need a pushrod length checker, stock length is fine. Even then, everything in that kit minus the length checker would be $759 or so. Doesn't sound too bad to me since they're all quality parts. Remember, the hotcam kit comes with a cam and a valvespring kit too, though, just no pushrods.

 

I got the crane golds 1.6 NSA they work great and look cool as hell.

 

I used 2....

1.6 SA GMPP 1.6 rollers

1.6 NSA 1.6 Comp Cam Pro-mags

 

I'm running the Crower Centerline .050 backset rockers. They were the only ones that gave me the correct geometry on .100 longer valves. I had to use 7.350 long pushrods also.
