Correct-A-Mondo............Alan is 1000% correct......brush up on your stocker racing history. Remember the Crane stamped steel rocker that came in 1.6 for the small block chevys. Several big name stocker racers were DQ'ed many years ago by NHRA for using these even though the lift checked correct at the retainer. It changes the rate of lift and produces more flow as the valve rises off the seat. Its DUMB to even think you could use rocker ratios greater than what the engine spec. book calls for. Stop trying to reinvent the wheel.
