Default 1.7, 1.8, 1.9 Ratio Rockers for a Series 1

How many would be intrested in 1.7, 1.8, 1.9 ratio rockers for a Series 1? How much would you be willing to pay? Which ratio would you want to run?

Sorry not alot about them now but if their seems to be intrest for them I can go into more detail.

For more people you may want to get in touch with some ser1 L67 swap fiero guys. There are also a few ser1 L67s on L67swap.com. If they did that much work to put that motor in there chances are good they would do rockers.

It depends on many factors - lift of cam, stock or modified heads, etc. You need to calculate peak lift. What cam are you looking at and what are the specs?

Blazin, is this a 'known' source, a bypass of the middle man for a known source, or a new source for us?

Watching this topic with interest. It'* either a cam or rockers for me next, and my cam was going to be custom.
