I plan on getting the rockers from Harland-Sharp eventually. The way I figure it is, you will have quite a bit of money into the build anyway. Why not spend a little more for some rockers. Who knows how much power even the 1.5 ratio rockers would make but there will be a lot less drag on the engine and better wear up top. Not to mention a 1.6 and especially a 1.7 ratio, if you can fit um, will have an even greater improvement. While the cash for them may not be worth it to some, they are worth it to me. And who knows, we haven't seen what they make for power on an Idi. They may make a big difference...

I know what ya mean. If I ever hit the lottery a 6.7 w/ a stout tranny would be swapped into my 94. In the little bit of time and limited mods they've got available the best i've seen on Youtube iirc outta 1 is 521 RWHP and over 1000Ft./Lbs. That's just a K&S Hot Tune, all the deletes, and cold air.

I've got $500 for the donor motor, bout $700 all the gaskets, seals, etc. for everything, and just paid $750 for a turbo-cal pump and stage 1's today along with $350 for the cam package. If I can get that turbo for $350 and get a heavy TC I was told about for round $300 I mite look into it. Money, who needs it.
