1.25 rockers

[mollysdad]

Evening.

Just debating on changing my stock rockers for 1.25's.

Running a 1776 with an W100 cam and when LP originally built it he put 1.25's in but one of them seized on the shaft so I swapped for the stock ones I already had.

What are peoples thoughts on the increase in hp from the change? How much shimming needs to be done?

Cheers,

I like them, they make a noticeable difference through the revs with a STD cam. Most noticeable at lower revs perhaps. I bunged them on without shims, I doubt you'd need them either with the 100 Eye it up? When I also tried them with a tastier cam, a c35 which is more like an Engle 120, just looking at the range of angles, shimmed or not, put me off.

cheers Zed, I was hoping to source a single rocker and a set of shafts as I have 7 rockers that have only done about 50 miles!
