Re: 1.6 rocker questions

If stamped rockers just swap out - leaving all else stock in there in tact. If roller-tipped rockers again, just swap.

If fancy expensive full roller rockers then I haven't a clue.

Why are we asking this in the Body swection - will get way better answers in the tech section?

Re: 1.6 rocker questions

if installing on centerbolts. You need self aligning rockers, unless you have guideplates then you can use whatever you want pretty much.
