Default Roller Rockers.

Does anybody know what the aprox. price of roller rockers would be for a 94 SE?

You already have roller rockers. What a savings, eh? Welcome to the world of PERFORMANCE built stock motors. You also have roller lifters.

Happy?

I think the rocker retainers are different, but your tapped holes in the head might be the same thread pattern. If so, just grab the rockers and retainers

We have a member with a motor sitting in his garage on a stand.......he changed it out for a coil pack........not saying who, but I wonder if you could talk him out of his rockers

They'd be pretty cheap at a junkyard, if they'd let you part out the heads. They might make you buy the whole head to get at the valvetrain. Hector and I can tell you how spendy that can be.

Yep. 93 was the first year. I found this out first hand when changing the head gaskets. willwren was pretty surprised about that.

I'd still like to see under the covers on a 92. Just to be sure. How sure are you on this one Jr?

BTW Jr, what happened to your stars? Someone **** on them? They're the wrong color

I am going to try and fit LT1 rockers onto my ported and polished heads since they are aluminum and have roller tips for more power. Should fit.

You have to keep reminding me of my totalled Roadmaster. You're so mean to me
