I agree with the guys that have stated; improving the rocker arm situation,will just create another problem down stream.Currently Stock eliminator is far from stock,dont make it worse. ed
Eddie,
As an "Old Timer", you can probably relate to having to buy or find a bucket of OEM rocker arms and going through the entire bucket to get the allowable lift. Maybe you haven't. I have. And so do others that look for the most from their combination. If this rule is for real, you can buy ratio correct rockers from $150 to $300 new. Used can be bought all day long for much less. No, I don't buy that this would keep you out. Prices have escalated and payouts have dropped. It aint the old days!
