Not at all....e85 gains more. Rockers may be worth 1/3 of e85. Maybe less. I gained 4hp with rockers. E85 is in the 12-20hp range.
Rockers are a 15-20hp mod Hio... and you know it.

I've warned you. I don't want to hear any excuses from you. Seems like you've been working on a list of them.

Nope, we're not special, you are. You can't even make a logical nor a gramitcally correct statement.

It's a mystery how you even passed 1st grade.

I've read this several times and can't make sense out of it. I think you're just deflecting from how horribly wrong you were.

I think the point that mac is trying to make is that he can't know if he doesn't like gay sex until he gives it a go.

You're the king at Deflecting, never answer simple questions that are asked about your cars.

Rockers aren't bolt ons though mike. And I think he over exaggerated the amount of power that can be gained

And from a thread on Camaro5:

"Based on SLP ZL packages - rocker arms gives you about 15 hp (1.85 ratio)."



http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/...r-arm-mod.html
From the thread... a dyno of LS2 with rockers:

"I had the SLP 1.85 rocker arms on my LS2. The gains were around 15-18rwhp at the peak. The gains didn't show up at the track though. Combined with the FAST intake, I think they were a decent mod as long as that's as far as you're going to go. Obviously no FAST for the LS3 and if you want a cam down the road, not a good mod. IMO, skip the rockers and go with a cam. Just my .02. I also had some issues with one of the SLP springs. One of them broke with just under 1000 miles on it. It held together and I was lucky to not have dropped a valve. Things break and this might be an isolated incident but if they ever try to tell you, like they did me, that their springs don't break, raise this flag"


I would post more proof to counter your claim, but I have to leave the hizous for the day.
