rocker change?

what would changing from 1.5 rockers to 1.6 do for my overall valve lift? worth doing? I can't seem to find a cam to fit my lift duration requirements.

Re: rocker change?

Original lift divided by 1.5 multiplied by 1.6 for new lift. Duration increases very slightly but not enough to be noticeable.

With hundreds of cam grinds from many different cam suppliers, it's hard to believe you can't find one to your liking. Get one custom ground from Bullet Cams.
