Ever planning a Cam change? As they may affect your cam selection if so. Also why are you going them? for the money you dont get much bang for your buck performance wise. But yes they have been done.

It can be done, and would've been done before I am sure, the issue with going to 1.8 rocker ratio, is the lift of your cam changes, if the lift is .595 on 1.7, whic is the specified lift as per cam specs, under the 1.8 it is actually .630. So the selection of your cams will have to take this into account. But they believe it is a good upgrade, but the stock rockers are still pretty good.

If you want some, my mate is selling some 1.85s from an L76, so will fit straight in

Chucked some into mine when I put the cam in. Stock ratio though.
Good, easy to install valvetrain upgrade.
Wouldn't expect much if your installling higher ratio ones for a performance upgrade though.

Can someone verify that I would just need to find TDC on any cyl.? or am I to find TDC for all cyls when installing rockers?
Thanks

After my LS7 cam upgrade didn't add much power I was very tempted to try 1.8s as that's what the LS7 runs as stock. I suspect the lack of lift with the standard 1.7s contributed to the lack of power.
