I would like to some
feed back on how a some of you on the list feel about roller tipped rockers
versus the regular type. I'm getting ready to put the "new" heads on my car and
a co-worker suggested I use the roller tip type. His justification was this,
"with the roller tip rockers the valve will not be getting pushed down in a side
motion where as the roller tips allow the valve to be pushed straight up and
down not prematurely wearing out the valve guides". I was not thinking of this
as in increase in horse power, just looking to have the heads on there for a
while without having to pull them off and have the guides replaced again because
all that was done when the heads were machined.
Thanks in
advance.
