LT1 cam swap.....rockers too?
I was wondering if I could and if it's worth it to swap out the stock rockers with ones from an LT1 when I put the LT1 cam in?
Thanks,
Mark

You can, but there wouldn't be any benefit. The LT1s came with SA rockers just like every other ordinary 87+ SBC.
The LT4s are the ones with roller rockers. Although, from what I've read, they're roller trunion also, and don't last more than 40-50K miles. I may be mistaken on that though.
