Okay... Looking for interest in Roller Rockers
Hello all,
I wanted to check in with the RV guys and gals that like best performance out of their engines as well as less wear in the valve train area. Any interest in installing these jewels in your engine?
We run Roller Rocker Arms on my 320 and love them!!  I'm pretty sure Mel Asberry runs them as well.
The rocker arms are the same for 540, 360, and 320. The rockers come ready to install. They open .012 thousands more than the OEM. This is just right for the engine, makes a Smoother Idle and More Power. The BIG plus... pretty much eliminates wear on the valve guides.
Feed back will determine production... and 1000's of engines already flying with these Roller Rockers.
Email me if you have an interest.
Best,

If the price was reasonable I'd be interested. I used to a run roller cam and roller rockers on all my small block chevys back in my hot rod days and they worked great

Price
If the price is right, I and a lot of others are interested. IF the PRICE is HIGH, not as many of us will be interested.
I have one running engine in my flying RV and a SPARE engine waiting for me to rebuild it. At the right price, I would be in for TWO sets.

I installed my roller rockers in September of '94. Never a hiccup. Valve guides still tight.

Repsonse...
So far the response has been awesome... we can crunch the numbers now. As always, we are extremely cheap for the labor & cost involved.
