Going to install 1.5 roller rockers
Going to install 1.5 roller rockers
So I've made the decision to mod the engine a little before redoing my entire suspension first. My plan was to take care of my suspension on my 1LE (Spohn equipped front to back) then start in the engine finally moving to a t56. I've made a detour and am looking into 1.5 roller rockers. Are these rockers easy to install? I mean simply remove the cast irons and replace with rollers then torque down the locknut to the spec?? Thanks in advance.

Yeah that makes a mess unless you have an extra valve cover to cut up, or something else you can use to cover it.
