rocker arm question

hey everyone, im puttin together a 351w right now, its got .030 stock replacement pistons (fresh bore), 93 mustang maf injection, melling performance cam with .461 lift. i was looking for some roler rockers but the only pedestal mount ones i can find are from crane cams and have a 1.7 ratio, will i have any valve clearence issues with that much lift and stock pistons?

The 1.7 rockers should work just fine. You aren't running a high enough lift to hurt.

Make sure your heads will work with those rockers too. If you don't have pedestal mount heads ( 78-97) they won't work. The 1.7's increase the lift specs by only .030, not hardly enough to matter unless you have a big *** cam to start with.
